Kurt Streit - "Se per te giungo a godere" (Händel, "Rodelinda")
Singer: Kurt StreitKurt Streit plays a debonair (and very charming) Grimoaldo in the 1998 Glyndebourne production of Händel's "Rodelinda".
I noticed that there just isn't enough of this brilliant tenor online, so I shall attempt to remedy that. Enjoy! His stage manner (especially the bit in the clip where he's just rolling around on the stage) is very endearing, and I firmly believe he is one of the great singing actors of our time.

Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
GrimoaldoScaccia il timore,
che questo lauro mio
sarà in difesa tua, contro il più crudo
fulmine del suo sdegno, un forte scudo.
Aria di Grimoaldo
Se per te giungo a godere,
puoi temer di chi? di che? (ne sai perche?)
Io d'Astrea do moto al brando,
io commando, io son Re.
Se...etc.
(parte con Garibaldo)
English Libretto or Translation:
GrimoaldoBanish that fear;beneath my laurels shalt
thou stand protected,
against the thunder of her wrath secure.
Thro` thy means, if I enjoy her,
what or whom hast thou to dread?
Justice strikes, as I employ her,
Strikes, when kings demand a head.
Thro etc.
