Southbank Sinfonia Baroque
Music from the Royal Courts
In association with The London Handel Festival, Adrian Butterfield directs the Southbank Sinfonia Baroque in a feast of music from the Royal Courts. Expect joyous dance music full of energy and exuberance!
With historical performance an integral part of the Southbank Sinfonia experience, the players will be performing using historical practices. It’s an unmissable evening sure to whisk you off your feet back in time to the majestic Royal Courts!
