This video features a masterpiece performance of the work by the outstanding harpist Marisa Robles, accompanied by the renowned chamber orchestra of the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, conducted by Iona Brown. Interestingly, this concerto, known today as the harp concerto, was originally written by Handel for organ (Concerto grosso op. 4 No. 6). The harp version, which you will hear in this legendary 1980 recording made at London's Kingsway Hall, incredibly organically reveals the lyrical nature of the composer's music, emphasizing the warm and tender sound of the solo instrument. Marisa Robles is a world-renowned Spanish harpist whose playing is distinguished by inimitable elegance and depth. Iona Brown is a brilliant violinist and conductor, and the long-time leader of the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, whose collaboration with Robles gave us this flawless reading of Handel's masterpiece.
