Enjoy this rendition of George Frederic Handel's Total Eclipse from his oratorio Samson in celebration of the May 2022 total eclipse. Libretto by Newburg Hamilton.
Lyrics:
Total eclipse! No sun, no moon! All dark amidst the blaze of noon! Oh, glorious light! No cheering ray, To glad my eyes with welcome day! Why thus depriv'd, Thy prime decree? Sun, moon, and stars are dark to me!
