Lascia ch`io pianga


"Lascia ch'io pianga" is a renowned song from George Frideric Handel's opera, Rinaldo. Composed in the key of F major, it was first performed in 1711. The extraordinarily talented Handel wrote the music for this opera, while the libretto was provided by Giacomo Rossi. Notable performers of this song include the acclaimed opera singer, Cecilia Bartoli, who has delivered mesmerizing renditions of this soprano aria. Interestingly, this piece has been used in various films, such as "Farinelli" and "The Talented Mr. Ripley." The melody is characterized by its plaintive and delicate nature, evoking a sense of longing and melancholy."
