This delightful aria, sung by Cleopatra in Handel's opera "Julius Caesar," has been skillfully arranged with melodic writing for each part, while shared rhythmic patterns and canonic interest contribute to the musicality of the score. The text asks that the "bright heavenly star shine its light on me." Not too demanding vocally, this setting will appeal to many ages of treble choirs.
