𝑺𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒕 𝑺𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒉𝒏𝒂𝒅𝒆 ~ Largo (Ombra mai fui) from "Xerxes" by George Frideric Handel

Hello everyone! 👋
I know it's been a minute since I've posted! I've been quite busy this summer doing fun activities (more on that coming soon 👀) and preparing to move to college! I hope you all have been doing some fun things too! 😄
Today I have for you a piece that has been requested by multiple people... ‪@mariusroos‬ , ‪@RYNT1157‬ , and ‪@marianmandy9514‬ , this one's for you! 😉 Thank you for being such loyal subscribers! This arrangement is by ‪@scottbrothersduo‬ !
You may notice something different in this video... Can you spot it? If you guessed "tablet", that's correct! I recently decided to make at least a partial switch to using a tablet with an automatic page-turning feature! I say "partial" because I'm not sure that I'm comfortable using it during a church service yet for fear it'll glitch out at a bad moment... 😅 But even still, I think for me, having a tablet to carry around for practice instead of multiple organ books will prove quite useful. 😄
Anyway, more videos are coming soon, so stay tuned! 😉
Have a good day/night!
~ Sarah 💕

An historical note of interest. This selection was the first piece of music terrestially broadcast on radio! Wonderful pacing Sarah.

[@marianmandy9514]

Wow, of all the things that could have been broadcast, what a beautiful choice! Imagine what peace we'd have if it were perpetually broadcast throughout the world.

Moved to tears. Thank you.

I think we should thank Frederic Handel, a masterpiece, I am a Bach fan and I have to say, he couldn't do better.

[@sjfoley4983]

Absolutely beautiful. One of my favourite pieces of music.

[@hessu3]

Now this is a tempo 😊 I have never dared to play this beautiful piece this slowly. But it sounds great 👍

[@user-dx8yw7ns8p]

Ich bin der Meinung, das ist zu langsam.

[@MrPienaarza]

I always feel like crying when I hear this beautiful piece of music - it was my late husband 's special. Ronél Pienaar.

[@missasinenomine]

My late Father's too. My late Mother liked it as well, & so did our late cat. (Though she preferred The Water Music, since it was longer. More sleep time).

[@janvermaak9971]

Ja Ronél dit bly voorwaar ñ pragtige skepping van Handel wat emosies diep raak.Dit is deel van ons kultuur en geestelike skatte!

[@waltertanner7982]

@@missasinenomineAlso my mother loved it til her hundreths year, when she finally died, last november. Also my rather, who had led her into music, when they both were in their prime, shortly after ww2. (Sorry for the rambling)

[@janetryan9779]

Beautiful piece- and exquisitely played! I first heard Largo on a recording of Jean Pierre Rampal, flutist- shortly after beginning to learn the flute- and fell in love with it! Classical music has been my favorite type of music ever since this period of my life. I so enjoyed hearing you play this great work in its entirety on the majestic pipe organ. Thank you for sharing this! :)

[@attiliodalcavaliere999]

[@martinobrien4882]

When i was a child, way back in the mid 70s, i came across by accident, a tape cassette with various classical and baroque music on it. the cassette was an odd production sponsored by some pharmaceutical company. i still have it to this day. this piece was on the cassette, and i was enthralled by it. it was what inspired me go delve deeper into classical music, but most especially, baroque music. you brought back memories, brought back the child i once was. thank you
