A duet for Clotilde and Aldolfo from Act III
From the recording of the opera on Virgin Classics

Performed by

and I Barocchisti under Diego Fasolis

Libretto by Apostolo Zeno (1669-1750)

Cara/caro, tu mi accendi nel mio core
Dolce fiamma, dolce amore,
Che mi sforza a sospirar.
Ne tuoi sguardi/ne tuoi lumi
La mia speme han posta i Numi
Ma pur gemo/ma pur peno
E mi sento in mezzo al seno,
Oh Dei, l'anima mancar.

Cara/caro . . .

Dear one, you kindle in my heart
a sweet flame, a tender love
that yearning only increases.
In your face/In your glances
the gods offer me hope, 
but still I groan and I ache
and I feel deep in my breast, 
oh gods, my heart stopping.


Art in this video by
John William Waterhouse (1849-1917)
