Handel - "L'empio, sleale, indegno" from his opera Giulio Cesare. James Bowman, countertenor. HD.

Ptolemy is very cross with Julius Caesar!
English: "Upstart, barbarian, and traitor".
Giulio Cesare in Egitto (Julius Caesar in Egypt, HWV 17), commonly known simply as Giulio Cesare, is an Italian opera in three acts written for the Royal Academy of Music by George Frideric Handel in 1724.
This is an English version, staged (sumptiously) for TV in 1985 by the English National Opera under Sir Charles Mackerras. This clip features James Bowman (counter-tenor - as Ptolemy). Short recitative, followed by the aria - Upstart, Barbarian...
I have always loved James Bowman, and his performance in this production (singing, acting, timing) is no exception.
