Ombra mai fù is one of the most famous arias from Serse; it is also known as Handel’s Largo (celebrated for its wonderful tune). The aria is sung by Serse, who talks of his love for the beautiful tree in his palace garden. Placed immediately after the overture, this aria is unrelated to the overall story line. The greatness of the music lies in its utter simplicity, its attractive melodic line and in its stunningly expressive sonority.
