Fiamma Izzo D'amica - Non pianger, mia compagna

27 year old Fiamma Izzo D'Amico as Elisabetta in Don Carlo.
Filippo II - Ferruccio Furlanetto.
Herbert Von Karajan, Salzburger Osterfestspiele 1986.

TEBALDO
The King!

FILIPPO
Why is the Queen unattended?
Did you not keep at least one lady-in-waiting with you?
Are you unaware of my royal decree?
Which maid-of-honour should have been with you?

Countess, at daybreak you will return to France.

CHORUS
Ah! He insults the Queen!

ELISABETTA
Do not weep, my companion,
Do not weep, no,
soothe your grief.
You are banish from Spain but not from my heart.
With you the dawn of my life was still happy,
return to our native land,
my heart will follow you,
ah, my heart will follow you, will follow you, etc.

Recieve one last token, a token of all my regard;
hide the base outrage for which I still blush.
Do not talk of my tears,
nor my cruel sorrow;
Return to our native land, my heart will follow you.

RODERICO, LADIES, GENTLEMEN
Spirit, gentle and pious,
calm your grief.
Spirit, gentle, etc.

FILIPPO
How, in my presence,
she feigns a noble heart!
How, in my presence, etc.

ELISABETTA
Return to our cuntry, our native land,
with my heartfelt wishes.

I SAW FIAMMA .SHE WAS NOT A GREAT SINGER.SHE SING ONLY 2 SEASONS

[tomclaudetom]

Just Divine. 

[Uruguruh]

I sang in the choir in a production of I Pagliacci when this great singer sang Nedda :

What a voice: powerful, crystalclear and full of emotion!!!

I believe she was discovered by Von Karajan.

Does anyone know if she still sings?

@Talpa86gaia

Fiamma was born in 1964 wasn't she? So here (86) she is only 22 years, right? Now I've became unsure! See the comment of Elisabetta611, pls. I'm really unsure, THx!

[lamsalgado]

@Elisabetta611 You are right! Thx for the correction! She is great in this D. Carlo !!!

[MadameMoedl]

for me she's better than caballe and scotto & co! such a young voice (think about elisabettas age in the history...) such a lovely and easy high such a gorgeous voice filled with warmth and possibilties... amazing! thx for posting! would be great to hear her "tu che le vanita"...

[Gigglingatagas]

I bought this DVD ages ago, and I haven't watched it in years. I think I discounted it because I was shocked that they cast a "no-name" soprano as Elisabetta. However, watching this now, I am blown away by the quality of the voice.

This is one of the times I'm glad to be wrong.

[musiciansinorder]

Got it. Her last name is misspelled.

[musiciansinorder]

Are there more videos of her on youtube?
