Orfeo has been allowed to bring back his wife from Hades as long as he does not look upon her face until they are back on earth. However, urged by Euridice, he turns around and looks at her and she immediately dies. Grief-stricken, he wonders what he will ever do without his love.

Che farò senza Euridice?
Dove andrò senza il mio ben?
Euridice, o Dio, rispondi!
Io son pure il tuo fedele.

Euridice! Ah, non m´avanza
più soccorso, più speranza
ne dal mondo, ne dal ciel.

Translation

What will I do without Euridice?
Where will I go without my beloved?
Euridice, oh God, answer me!
Yet I still belong to you faithfully.

Euridice! Ah, no help comes to me anymore,
No hope anymore,
Neither from this world, nor from heaven.

  • Certified Intergalactic!

  • CSODASZÉP! Köszönöm a feltöltőnek! Bonavil1 from Hungary

  • Thanks Civileso for making this, I really like your score videos.

    Here from 3:58 the instrumental coda does something totally different from what the score shows. Are there multiple versions of this?

  • Orfeo should be performed by an Alto Castrato,nowadays his role is played by a Soprano because,as you certainly could understand,those men are no more allowed.That's why the singer who interpretates Orfeo is a female one.

  • @tanakaori She is his wife, a nymph

  • Is she singing his part?

  • Great video.
