jan 1, 1724 - Giulio Cesare
Description:
one of the most famous operas by Handel.In the early eighteenth century, opera tended to be formulaic, which made it possible to
compose quite a few in a short period. Handel’s Giulio Cesare is a prime example of the composer’s operatic style, written at
the height of his career (1724). The aria “Empio, diró, tu sei” contains several exciting aspects of what Handel could
do within a da capo aria.
