2001 Maryland Handel Festival & Conference

May 3-6, 2001

College Park, MD, USA

Fine Arts

Host: University of Maryland
Homepage: http://www.intr.net/bleissa/mhf/

Organizers: Richard King

Description:
The 2001 Maryland Handel Festival & Conference, which will feature performances of Theodora and Jephtha, marks the conclusion of the Festival's twenty-year project of performing all Handel's English oratorios in order of composition. To celebrate this achievement, we are planning a conference that we hope will prove to be one of the largest gatherings in recent years of Handelians and others interested in the arts in eighteenth-century Britain.

The conference will have no "theme" per se. Instead, we hope that scholars will share what they feel is their most interesting and/or promising recent research. The conference we hope will thus serve as a guide to the future of Handel studies.
