Salisburys 1761 Opera Revived performed by Opera at Chilmark James Harris, an MP who lived in the Cathedral Close and was a friend of Handel, was central to musical life in the city for many years in the mid-18th century. He created The Spring as a pasticcio – a collection of vocal music by a variety of composers, including Handel and Pergolesi, to which he set English words to make a topical story. The opera was first performed at the 1761 Salisbury Festival. The score was held in Cambridge University Library, before being discovered and recreated by Nigel Wyatt.
