The World's most beautiful music: Handel's "Ombra mai fu"

Handel: He's more than "Messiah", folks. Don't get me wrong-I absolutely love "Messiah", but when people tell me that "Messiah" is their favorite work by Handel, I usually ask them if they've heard any of Handel's operas and the most common reply is, "Oh, I didn't know he composed opera!"

Here's an example of some of Handel's best-"Ombra mai fu" from "Xerxes" sung here by the incredible Welsh baritone, Bryn Terfel.
