The costume is not for comedy...it's kind of like what a Castrati would have worn in a baroque opera when playing a general/warrior/king/god.

Great singing, great fun, and I had to smile at the costume: Why shouldn't great music performances have a comedy component, too!? It left me very happy indeed to hear the great Ms. Hallenberg making this her aria.

@Cissy97 Was not the role of Ruggiero for Carestini?
-
Aria for Cafarelli.

@DrPrunesquallor73 To both you and @vivacecilia I would like to say this: This is not a Farinelli-aria. Händel never had the privilege to work together with him. But indeed I agree, Cecilia Bartoli has not a monopoly on this kind of castrati and baroque repertoire.

I am still amazed of the abilty of professional singers to do everything they do LIVE. Without goofing up. And apparently even enjoying themselves.

c mon horns!
There are many reasons why was this aria chosen as the first encore.
