Antonio Lotti - Pur dicesti, O bocca, bocca bella

Antonio Lotti (ca 1667-1747)

Pur dicesti, o bocca bella,
Quel soave e caro sì,
Che fa tutto il mio piacer.

Per onor di sua facella
Con un bacio Amor t'aprì,
Dolce fonte del goder, ah!

(repeat first verse)

Sung during a concert of my choir Chapeaux Noirs in the Lutherse Kerk in Maastricht, its conductor (and my singing teacher ) accompanying, in May 2009. It was a first try; I would probably sing it a little quicker now, and would certainly pay more attention to my diction (were are the "s"'s in "bacio etc.), try to cut down on the portamenti, and work on the embellishments.... But it is a very nice song, listen to better singers ...
