Gemma Bertagnolli: Tu me da me dividi, Pergolesi (L'Olimpiade)

[Erikk91]

Tu me da me dividi, barbaro tu m'uccidi! Tutto il dolor che io io sento, tutto mi vien da te. No !Non sperar mai pace,Odio quel cor fallace: oggetto di spavento sempre sarai per me!

You divide me from myself,o savage, you kill me! All the sorrow i feel comes from you. No! Don't hope never peace. I hate that fallacious heart: you will be always object of scare for me!

[jovi1715]

Brava Gemma!

Why isn't this woman more famous?? I love the version of Simone Kermes but I think this is 100 times better :P I love 2:05 - 2:14.

Grazie! Thank you!

Splendida!

Me encanta la versión de Pergolesi ! ... así de brava me gusta Aristea, que se sepa que esta herida , me gusta mucho Bertagnolli , pero me estremezco mas con Kermes, sin embargo tener mas referencias es genial.

amazing!!! i love gemma, her role of Ersilla in vivaldi's orlando finto pazzo is great, and her version of laudate pueri dominum rv 600 is the best of all. i only know mentre dormi and this aria from pergolesi's l'olimpiade. i hope soon as studio version of that. thank you!

Powerful and elegant!!! Bravo Pergolesi, brava Gemma Bertagnolli!!

[geigestimme82]

Wow!! Great aria!! And, as usual, Bertagnolli is a great artist!

[altrimenti992]

Great!!!

Great music - I wish this was available on CD. Pergolesi's operas are scandalously neglected. Also, could you give me the details of the painting you display during the clip? Thanks.

[Thrax1982]

I didn't remember the name of the painting but I looked it up.

It's 'Hecuba Blinding Polymnestor'

by Giuseppe Maria Crespi

I've more Pergolesi planned for the future (after I finish with Temistocle probably).

I'm not that big fan of his but he certainly wrote some beautiful arias from time to time.

Scendi propizia

Col tuo splendore,

O bella Venere,

Madre d'Amore,

O bella Venere,

Che sola sei

Piacer degli uomini.
