  • ça vient du CD? si oui lequel?

  • oui. lequel? Je te le dis pas nananère nananère...^^xD

    non en fait je vais te le dire: c'est chez "Erato": Alcina avec Renee Fleming, Susan Graham, Laurent Naouri, l'orchestre "Arts Florissants" dirigé par William Christie.

  • The beginning introduction of this aria reminded me instantly of "Un pensiero voli in ciel" from the Handel Delirioso Cantatas.

  • It's interesting to draw parrallels between Handel's pieces like you do.

    however, I find that "un pensiero voll in ciel" is a more ornemented piece . It's also in duple time whereas "o s'apre al riso" is in triple time.

  • i love her voice!! ♥♥♥

  • Ha - I thought the very beginning sounded very much like the famous minuet in g major!

  • I absolutely agree, and yes the meters are different, but based on pure melodic line and intervals within the music and the introduction, it's very similar. I heard this piece and instantly thought "Un pensiero voli in ciel!"

  • ah oki ^^
