Composed for London in 1732, Sosarme reveals Handel at the height of his operatic mastery. Political tension and family conflict intertwine in a drama where each character is granted a distinct musical voice: a mother torn between love and duty, a son divided by honour, a heroine luminous in devotion, and an intriguer driven by restless ambition. Handel concentrates his invention in a succession of arias and rare duets of remarkable dramatic weight, shaping a score that balances virtuosity with psychological nuance. Echoes of earlier works are transformed into fresh expressive statements, lending the opera both continuity and renewal. Under Marco Angioloni’s direction, the music unfolds with supple energy and theatrical focus, revealing a work of noble intensity and emotional clarity, where reconciliation emerges from turmoil in a final gesture of radiant serenity.
