  1. Very interesting note by Zephyrinus, this Handel aria excerpted from the opera “Rinaldo:”

    “Leave me to weep (over my cruel fate.”: “The character Almirena sings this poignant lament while held captive in an enchanted garden by her abductor, Argante.”

    Now Zephyrinus is covering not just Catholic teaching, art, architecture, history and the devotional life, but great works of classical music. Wonderful! -Comment by Dante P
