What the papers said:

At the core of the evening, the tenor Ian Bostridge and soprano Kate Royal found a compelling way with some Handel arias, establishing a close, contemplative rapport in 'As Steals the Morn' and a delicious vernal freshness in "Happy We!" The 'Music for the Royal Fireworks' at the end of the concert thrillingly fielded complementary thwacks from the timpani on either side of the stage to add to the ceremonial grandeur.
