My friends, I hope that your Easter was fantastic and that you had a chance to relax and reflect a bit!!! Speaking of reflecting, please check out these postings as we enter into the FANTASTIC BAROQUE MUSICAL PERIOD and the Rock Star of the 17th Century, George Frederick Handel! I've included 3 versions of his famous song(aria) from Opera: L'ascia ch'io pianga, from his Opera, Rinaldo to give you an idea of how great a composer of melody Handel was. The plot is complex to this Opera, RINALDO but...quickly, Rinaldo is a Christian warrior, led into battle against Argante, the King of Jerusalem. Rinaldo, should he win this battle, will also win the hand of Almirena, the daughter of the Christian Army General, Goffredo. Throw in some magical sorcery and Almirena is captured by the King of Jerusalem, Argante. Almirena now captured, sings this song about her cruel fate hoping that soon, she shall be freed.  Btw...in the end, King Aragante loses the battle and converts to Christianity and Rinaldo marries Almirena!!! I guess her song worked!!!! Ha!
Bonus: Our last Handel selection is incredible British trumpet specialist, Alison Balsom who is playing Handel's Overture (Beginning) to his opera, ATALANTA! Her trumpet is the same as was used in Handel's time! It has no valves to change the notes. That has to be done with lip pressure and breath pressure! Whether you like this "joyous" music or not, you must admit, she is impressive!!!!
