Synopsis

Product Description
The Treaty of Utrecht signed in 1713 brought an end to almost two centuries of worldwide warfare. This was the first peace achieved through diplomacy, with special thanks to the hospitality of Utrecht. The event was celebrated with music, festive fireworks and specially commissioned compositions such as the Utrecht Te Deum and Utrecht Jubilate by George Frideric Handel and the Ode for the Peace of Utrecht by William Croft. These three jubilant works receive glowing performances from the Netherlands Bach Society led by Jos van Veldhoven.
