About This Work
The title, "Ombra Mai Fù" which translates from the Italian as ‘Never has there been a shade’, is the first aria of the opera Serse (Xerxes) by George Frideric Handel, and is sung by the main character, "Xerxes", in praise of a tree's shade as he sits underneath it. It is commonly known as Handel's "Largo", although the original tempo was larghetto.
Dramatically arranged for Concert Band in the original key of F Major by Geoff Kingston, this much loved melody is tailored for the concert platform. Valuable also as incidental music for weddings, church services or more solemn occasions.
The full score and parts are available in PDF format.
