This is a piece composed by Handel a long time ago. It tells the story of a young lady who was abducted by a Saracen king. She then spends the rest of her life mourning the loss of her lover.

My version played on the EL organ. Ken S

Hi Ken..Not one I’ve heard before. A peaceful piece of music I can see why you got hooked. A choir singing it would be nice. Liked the sounds particularly the organ. John

Hello there Ken,
That was a pleasant performance and a great listen well played and voiced my friend. :D :D :D

Jon D. :) :) :wink:
Hi there I have played from the age of 13 and all my music is played in a sort of dance tempo style. Have worked in nearly all the North East clubs over the years. That gave me a good grounding. Cheers.
