Description:
This aria, sung by the character Ptolemee, from Handel's oratorio "Alexander Balus" (HWV 65. No. 6) has been arranged for solo brass instrument with piano accompaniment by Winston Morris. In 3/8, while at a reasonably fast tempo, the work offers intermediate players a perfect amount of technical challenge while also offering the opportunity to perform a song from the Baroque era with appropriate phrasing and musicianship. Version for trumpet, trombone, baritone B.C., and tuba are available from the publisher.
