David Moody, opera and voice coach Susan Nowicki, opera and voice coach “Lascia ch’io pianga” (“Let me weep”) from Rinaldo Music by George Frederic Handel ~ Text by Giacomo Rossi Armida dispietata! Colla forza d’abisso Cruel Armida! With a hellish force Rapimmi al caro ciel di miei contenti You capture me from the dear heaven of my happiness E qui con duolo eterno viva mi tieni in tormentoso Inferno And hold me here in eternal sadness and infernal torment Signor ! Ah ! per pietà lasciami piangere. Lord! Ah! For mercy let me weep. Lascia ch’io pianga Let me weep mia cruda sorte, my cruel fate, e che sospiri la libertà. and let me sigh for liberty. Il duolo infranga queste ritorte May sorrow break these chains de’ miei martiri sol per pietà. Of my sufferings, for pity’s sake. Translation from http://en.wikipedia.org “Sorge infausta una procella” (“An inauspicious tempest rises”) from Orlando Music by George Frederic Handel ~ Text by Carlo Sigismondo Capece Sorge infausta una procella An inauspicious tempest rises che oscurar fa il cielo e il mare and darkens the sky and the sea sorge fausta poi la stella after this good star rises che ogni cor ne fà goder. and makes each heart happy. Può talor il forte errare Sometimes the hero can err ma risorto dall’errore but, after the mistake, quel che pria gli dié dolore he feels a great joy cusa immenso il suo piacer. for what was before his great sorrow. Translation by Ugo Berardi from www.aria-database.com Joan’s Aria from Maid of Orleans Music and text by Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky Yes, the time has come. I must yield to a call from the heavens. But why do I feel fearful? My heart is throbbing painfully. Farewell to the hills and the fields; farewell to the peaceful lot. You shall never see Joan again; forever she says farewell. Dear woods and meadows, you must live on and bloom without me. Cool grotto and murmuring streams, I leave you forever and shall never return. I must leave all that is dear to me. My flocks, without a shepherdess you must go on. By fate, I must be a shepherdess to another flock, tormented by a fierce war. So it is decided by a higher power. O God, to You I open my sad and tormented heart. Farewell. Translation by Ghenady Meirson “Un gitano sin su honor” (“A gypsy without his honor”) from Luna Music and text by José María Cano Dime que no es verdad Tell me that it is not true. Dime que lo que están viendo mis ojos Tell me that what my eyes are watching no es más que un mal sueño is no more than a bad dream, que de tanto quererte that because of loving you so much me he vuelto loco I became crazy. Y un gitano sin su honor And a gypsy without his honor es la cosa más peor is the worst thing. Fue mi mare quien me lo enseñó It was my mother who taught me this, cuando vio que ya iba a echar a andar when she saw that I was almost walking, pa’ que lo aprendiese antes que a hablar for me to learn it before speaking: Que un gitano deshonrao That a dishonored gypsy es un mosto repuntao is just a squashed grape. no lo quiere nadie Nobody wants it ni pa’ hacer vinagre even to make vinegar— vino dulce que ha amargao. sweet wine that got bitter. Y un gitano sin su honor And a gypsy without his honor es la cosa mas peor is the worst thing. que al que es probe y que no tié de na’ The poor one who doesn’t have anything, no quitarle de su dignidad. don’t take his dignity away. Si me dejas humillao If you leave me humbled poca cosa me has dejao you have left me with nothing, y es que al probe que no tié de na’ aay The poor one who doesn’t have anything, ahh! No le quites de su dignidad Don’t take his dignity away. Un gitano sin su honor A gypsy without his honor un geranio sin la flor a geranium without the flower es que ni mirarlo Don’t even look at him. sirve pa’ pisarlo He is just for stepping on, ni un mal bicho alrededor even a bug wouldn’t be around him. que un gitano sin su honor That a gypsy without his honor es la cosa más peor. is the worst thing. Translation by Diego Silva “Vi mnye pisali ... Kogda bi zhizn domashnim krugom” from Eugene Onegin Music by Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky ~ Text by Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky and Konstantin Schilowskij You wrote to me. Do not deny it, I have read The confession of an honest soul, The claim of an innocent love. Your sincerity is dear to me. For it, I shall repay you By also telling the truth, Straight as it is. So accept this confession; I submit myself to your judgment. Had I wished to limit my life with a burden of family, Had I been granted a good fortune to be a father or a husband, Then, having met you, I would look no further. But I was not created for such indulgences; My soul is not open to them. Your great qualities are wasted on me, For I am not worthy of them. Believe me, in all honesty The marital life would be a torture for you, No matter how much love I had for you. The moment it became a habit, I would love you no more Then judge for yourself, what kind of roses Hymen would have in store for us, And for how many long days. The dreams and years have fled away, and shall not return, I love you like a brother, yes, a brother, And, perhaps, somewhat more tenderly than a brother would. So listen to me and have no angst Many times would a young maiden trade one passing dream For another one. Adapted from translation by Stephen Ettinger from www.aria-database.com “Quando me’n vo’ ” (“When I walk”) from La Bohème Music by Giacomo Puccini ~ Text by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa Quando me’n vo’ soletta per la via, When I walk all alone in the street, La gente sosta e mira people stop and stare at me E la bellezza mia tutta ricerca in me and gaze on all my beauty Da capo a pie’ ... from head to toe ... Ed assaporo allor la bramosia And then I taste the yearning Sottil, che da gli occhi traspira which shines from their eyes E dai palesi vezzi intender sa and which is able to perceive outward charms Alle occulte beltà. from hidden beauties. Così l’effluvio del desìo tutta m’aggira, So the scent of desire is all around me, Felice mi fa! it makes me happy! E tu che sai, che memori e ti struggi, And you, while knowing, remembering, and yearning, Da me tanto rifuggi? you shrink from me? So ben: I know it very well: Le angoscie tue non le vuoi dir, You don’t want to express your anguish, Ma ti senti morir! but you feel as if you’re dying! Adapted from translation by Giuseppe Cusmano from www.aria-database.com “È la solita storia” (“It’s the old tale”) from L’Arlesiana Music by Francesco Cilèa ~ Text by Leopoldo Marenco È la solita storia del pastore ... It’s the old tale of the shepherd ... Il povero ragazzo voleva raccontarla e s’addormi. The poor boy wanted to tell it and he fell asleep. C’e nel sonno l’oblio. There is oblivion in sleep. Come l’invidio! How I envy him! Anch’io vorrei dormir cosi, I too would like to sleep in such a way, nel sonno almen l’oblio trovar! in sleep, at least, to find oblivion! La pace sol cercando io vo’.

  • The Birth of an Opera
    THE BIRTH OF AN OPERA FIFTEEN MASTERPIECES from POPPEA TO WOZZECK Michael Rose IV • %'V • Norton & Company New York London Il Barbiere di Siviglia H E FIRST PERFORMANCE of Rossini's Barber was one of the great fiascos of operatic history. Yet only eight months earlier its composer had taken the first big step in what was to be the most daz- zling operatic career of the early nineteenth century. When Gioacchino Rossini arrived in Naples on 27 June 1815, he was twenty-three years old, he had fourteen operas to his credit, and he had never been this far from home in his life. Born in Pesaro and brought up in Bologna, his early successes had been largely confined to Venice and Milan, and the political divisions of the peninsula, recently reinstated after the Napoleonic interregnum, imposed at least two national borders between the Hapsburg regions of Lombardy and Venetia and the Bour- bon Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. But the Italian passion for opera had no respect for political frontiers and already Rossini was being spoken of across Italy as the latest operatic phenomenon. Since Naples had been for a century and a half one of the most important, perhaps the most influen- tial, of Italian centres of operatic activity, the appointment of this stripling from the north as director of its royal theatres raised eager anticipation (and not a few eyebrows) as well as opening a new chapter in Rossini's life. But Italian opera in the early nineteenth century was a cutthroat business. The Neapolitan contract did not tie him exclusively to Naples, and now that he had freed himself from the Venice-Milan axis of earlier years, Rossini was keen to exploit the new possibilities of his position.

  • Il Barbiere Di Siviglia
    Synopsis Act I Seville. Count Almaviva comes in disguise as a poor student named Lindoro to the house of Doctor Bartolo and serenades Rosina, whom Bartolo keeps confined to the house. Figaro the barber, who knows all the town’s secrets and scandals, explains to Almaviva that Rosina is Bartolo’s ward, not his daughter, and that the doctor intends to marry her. Figaro devises a plan: the count will disguise himself as a drunken soldier with orders to be quartered at Bartolo’s house so that he may gain access to Rosina. Almaviva is excited and Figaro looks forward to a nice cash pay-off. Rosina reflects on the voice that has enchanted her and resolves to use her considerable wiles to meet the man it belongs to. Bartolo appears with Rosina’s music master, Don Basilio. Basilio warns Bartolo that Count Almaviva, who has made known his admiration for Rosina, has been seen in Seville. Bartolo decides to marry Rosina immediately. Basilio suggests slander as the most effective means of getting rid of Almaviva. Figaro, who has overheard the plot, warns Rosina and promises to deliver a note from her to Lindoro. Bartolo suspects that Rosina has indeed written a letter, but she outwits him at every turn. Bartolo warns her not to trifle with him. Almaviva arrives, creating a ruckus in his disguise as a drunken soldier, and secretly passes Rosina his own note. Bartolo is infuriated by the stranger’s behavior and noisily claims that he has an official exemption from billeting soldiers. Figaro announces that a crowd has gathered in the street, curious about the argument they hear coming from inside the house.
