Laurence Cummings to Direct Haydn’s Creation for Academy of Ancient Music

“A new-created world: Laurence Cummings’s first concert as music director of the Academy of Ancient Music puts Haydn’s Creation at the centre of a dazzling immersive vision. It’s hard to imagine a choral work more life-affirming than The Creation: a vision of the universe that embraces both earthworms and angels, in music of cosmic grandeur and uninhibited joy. It’s the perfect way to celebrate a new chapter in the history of the AAM, in a performance that pairs immersive visuals with sounds that never get any less fresh.” Read the full press release below.
