Charles Hazlewood introduces a night of French Baroque music performed by the English Baroque Soloists and the Monteverdi Choir. Sir John Eliot Gardiner conducts a sequence of dances from Rameau's stage works, which also features performers from the Buskaid Soweto String Project and the dancers of Compagnie Roussat-Lubek. The programme also includes a rare performance of Campra's neglected Requiem Mass.
