Chamberfest welcomes Arion Baroque Orchestra, with a program exploring the ‘Operatic Fluidity’ of gender through some of Handel’s most beautiful arias. In Handel’s time, these arias would have been performed by castrati—it was their golden era—but these roles have long-since been assigned to mezzos, contraltos, and tenors. Arion gives these beloved works a current-day gender shift, as Amelia Keenan, contralto, and countertenor Ian Sabourin perform roles of the opposite gender.
