Helen joins Prague Philharmonia in their series at the Lobkowicz Palace for an evening celebrating Georg Friederic Handel and Joseph Haydn — two important continental composers of the 18th century, who also had a significant influence on musical life in England. While Haydn spent only a few years in London, Handel remained there for two-thirds of his life and was instrumental in promoting Italian opera and the creation of English oratorio.
