Admirable interpretation, very faithful to the composer's sense, executed with a fine, full, rich voice. We definitely need to hear much more of Morgan Higgins! If she were to do a re-take, the one spot where I might suggest the possibility of improvement is the section around 1:35 where Morgan seemed spooked a bit by the disappearance of the left hand of the accompaniment, apparently due to the lack of page-turner. Just a couple of measures there fell short of sustaining the color and power that Morgan brought to the rest of the piece. (I realize that it's not easy to perform Handelian vocal acrobatics, but Morgan has demonstrated here the ability to shine with the best.)
Oh, Had I Jubal's Lyre, or Miriam's tuneful voice. Oh, Had I Jubal's Lyre, or Miriam's tuneful voice. To sounds like his, I would aspire, to sounds like his I would aspire In songs like hers, in songs like hers Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, In songs, In songs, in songs, rejoice, rejoice, in songs like hers, rejoice. Oh, Had I Jubal's Lyre, or Miriam's tuneful voice. Oh, Had I Jubal's Lyre, or Miriam's tuneful voice. To sounds...to sounds, like his I would aspire In songs, like hers, in songs like hers, rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, rejoice in songs like her rejoice My humble strains but faintly, how much to heavn' and thee I owe My humble strains but faintly, how much to heavn' and thee I owe how much to heavn' and thee I owe

Great coloratura.

What's the story behind the aria?
Nice
Problems of intonation & the approach seems a bit too light. But pleasant.
