Handel's Solomon, HWV 67, of 1749, has never been one of his most popular biblical oratorios; it was a comparative flop in its own time, and even today, it is less often heard than the likes of Messiah and Judas Maccabaeus, but it is not clear why this should be so. Handel himself esteemed the work highly and revived it just before his death. Possibly the English public was ready for something new after Handel's unbroken run of hits, but more likely is that it is a different kind of work from Messiah, less dramatic and more poetic. The singer in the lead role of Solomon has a lot to do. Here, he is sung by a countertenor, Christopher Lowrey, although Handel would have used a woman by this time. Lowrey is not Andreas Scholl, who has sung the part, but his voice is suited to the reflective quality of many of the arias and grows on the listener as the oratorio proceeds. The other singers are uniformly strong, and the Chœur de Chambre de Namur and Millenium Orchestra (the spelling is original) keep up with conductor Leonardo García Alarcón through his blistering speeds in the choruses. In the studio, those speeds might have seemed unreasonable, but this was a live recording, and the audience was clearly in tune with what García Alarcón was doing. This is overall a highly energetic performance, and it works even though the "Arrival of the Queen of Sheba" (in the "Symfony" in Act III) is perhaps less stately than one would wish. Less successful, perhaps, is the engineering per se; the chorus is too far in the background, and some of the energy is robbed from its big moments. However, this is nevertheless a powerful recording of this Handel masterwork, which landed on classical best-seller charts in early 2023.
