Over the weekend the Handel & Haydn Society welcomed back Conductor Laureate Harry Christophers to Symphony Hall for its yearly portion of Mozart and Haydn. Predictable selections of those two composers capped the ends of event, but the addition of music from Hildegard von Bingen and Raffaella Aleotti gave the audience a rewarding exploration of nearly 700 years of composition.
