Handel, George Frideric
Handel arr. Martelli – Love In Her Eyes Sits Playing from Acis and Galatea (String Quartet)
This beautiful aria, arranged by Carlo Martelli from the masque Handel wrote during his sojourn at the Duke of Chandos's stately home near Edgware, depicts Acis's wonder and rapture following his first sighting of Galatea.
Each instrument has a turn with the tune, so this arrangement by Roy Thackray is helpful in learning to recognise the sound of the instruments, both together and separately.
In this melodic and appealing music the five instruments enjoy opportunities to caress the ears of audiences who may have been fearing heavier and more uncompromising fare.
