Handel's Xerxes
English-friendly
Original title: SERSE l'opéra en version de concert d'Haendel
Handel’s Xerxes
Caught between the straight-faced drama of an opera seria, and the comic opera buffa style, Xerxes disappeared from the stage after a mere five performances. But, the opening aria, Ombra mai fu, is an operatic favorite thanks to its beautiful plaintive melody as so many others. This opera is worshipped by its admirers and singers such as Emily D’Angelo and the talented Jakub Józef Orliński
