About "Trio Sonata for 2 Oboes and Continuo in A, Op. 5, No. 1, HWV 396 : Handel: Trio Sonata for 2 Oboes and Continuo in A, Op. 5, No. 1, HWV 396: 1. Andante - Adagio" by Celia Nicklin

Two oboes entwine like ivy climbing a sunlit colonnade, their Andante unfolding with poised grace before an Adagio casts a fleeting shadow. Handel's counterpoint feels both intimate and architectural—a calm surface over quiet longing, where each suspension hangs like a held breath in a marble hall.
