V’adoro, pupille represents a unique challenge for the arranger. Cleopatra’s seductive love song features two orchestras: the pit orchestra, and a second on stage (or off stage) orchestra of 9 players representing the muses. 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. The task is one of remaining true to the multi-dimensional character of the aria while recomposing it into music idiomatic 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.
