Da tempeste il legno infranto Cleopatra’s aria of joy and triumph, upon learning that Caesar, whom she loves, is in fact alive despite reports of his death in battle. This arrangement asks the question, “What would Handel have done with this music if he had a modern flute and piano at his disposal?” Handel was quite free in the reuse of his own works, and moved easily between the instrumental and vocal idioms. This coloratura aria is well suited to the flute and recomposition into virtuosic music for flute and piano. The ornamentation of the da capo is informed by vocal practice, but ultimately designed to be idiomatic for the Boehm system flute.
