Opera Viva presents a selection of arias and instrumental pieces taken from Händel’s operas, from the early Agrippina (1709) to the late Imeneo (1740), including also an example from the mythological oratorio Hercules (1745).
Among the excellent arias that can be listened to is «Svegliatevi nel core» from Giulio Cesare in Egitto, an opera that premiered to great acclaim in February 1724 at the King’s Theatre and is now part of the core of the baroque opera canon. The aria is sung by the young Sesto, son of Pompey and Cornelia, a role originally played
