Solomon is zonder twijfel een van de mooiste oratoria die Händel schreef. Hoewel er bijzonder weinig gebeurt, staat het werk bol van de prachtige aria’s en koren. Wat dat laatste betreft is het een groot geluk dat het kamerkoor van Namur in grootse vorm steekt: een Händeloratorium staat of valt met de kwaliteit van het koor. Bij de première zong een mezzosopraan de titelrol, maar tegenwoordig zijn het vrijwel altijd countertenors. Zo ook hier: Christopher Lowrey zingt voor Alarcón een expressieve Solomon met gevoel voor theater. De beide sopranen, Gwendoline Blondeel als de echtgenote van Solomon en Ana Maria Labin als de Queen of Sheba, dubbelen in de tweede akte als de twee ‘Harlots’ die vechten om een kind in het beroemde salomonsoordeel. Met name Blondeel weet vocaal prachtig te transformeren van liefhebbende echtgenote tot felle Second Harlot. In de mannenrollen horen we de soepele en energieke tenorstem van Matthew Newlin als hogepriester Zadok, en de bas-bariton Andreas Wolf als Levite, heerlijk welluidend en vol autoriteit. Alarcón lijkt zich met bijna hoorbaar genot te wentelen in de klankrijkdom van het oratorium en schakelt kundig tussen pastorale lichtheid, gloedvolle lyriek en vurig drama.
