New England Conservatory's Jordan Hall and the Boston Baroque program Jephtha - fantastic! It was a first time going. We will go back. The hall is beautiful and intimate. Really not a bad seat in the house. Lovely details throughout the hall that makes me think of it as a smaller Boston Symphony Hall. We have walked by it and heard reference to Jordan Hall over the years, but have never made the step towards going in or finding an event to go to there. Spoiler alert: we live in the suburbs and do not get into Boston as much as we'd like.

The Boston Baroque 26 musicians played on historical instruments. i.e. violoncello, harpsichord, etc. Loved them all.

For this production there was also the Boston Baroque Chorus. Wow...25 voices strong!

Plus, the featured artists - six fabulous voices- who sang Handel's oratorio, Jephtha. The combination of musical instruments and voices both individual and chorus was tremendous. The countertenor, Randall Scotting, was a treat. I have not experienced such a lovely strong high voice emanating from a male. The others were equally delightful. Strong wonderful voices.

This show was a treat. I recommend it for all senses. Beautiful to look at and listen to; fantastic setting. Even comfortable seats. We sat in the balcony - stage right, and the view of the stage from above allowed us to seeing the chorus in the back really easily. Yet, it seems all seats would be great.

For us a discovery of another place to head into Boston for a night out.

Gainsborough garage -right nextdoor- has event parking for $22 for the evening. Perfect.

The event was a birthday evening organized by my son who found the event on Groupmuse. Tix were $15. (Normally $65) and as mentioned very good seats.

Have a great evening in Boston by going to a Boston Baroque program. Wow, it was memorable. Thank you to all the creators of this heavenly music. I will definitely look to go again.
