ANNA BONITATIBUS - Mezzosoprano
G.F. Handel: Giulio Cesare in Egitto
René Jacobs, Freiburger Barockorchester
Aria of SESTO
*********
L'angue offeso mai riposa,
se il veleno pria non spande
dentro il sangue all'offensor.
Così l'alma mia non osa
di mostrarsi altera e grande,
se non svelle l'empio cor.
*********
The angered snake never rests
until it has spilled its poison
into its tormentor's blood.
So my soul cannot dare
to call itself noble or great
till it has torn out that evil heart.
*********
I've uploaded 3 of Anna's great Sesto arias
("La Giustizia" was unfortunately cut)
- Svegliatevi nel core
- L'angue offeso
- L'aure che spira
Aria Sesto
Svegliatevi nel core, furie d'un alma offesa, a far d'un traditor aspra vendetta! L'ombra del genitore accorre a mia difesa, e dice: a te il rigor, Figlio si aspetta. (parte)
Sesto Air
Wake up in the core, furies of an alma offense, to make of a traitor bitter revenge! The shadow of the parent comes to my defense, and says: to you the rigor, Son expects. (part)
