13 Dramatic Sopranos sing Lady Macbeth's Act 1 climax (Or tutti sorgete)
Singer(s): Maria Callas Ghena Dimitrova Liudmyla Monastyrska Birgit Nilsson Leonie Rysanek Astrid Varnay Grace Bumbry Shirley Verrett Elizabeth Connell Gwyneth JonesPart 5 of my "Dramatic sopranos sing..." series. Thirteen dramatic sopranos sing the climax of Lady Macbeth's Act 1 letter scene (Nel dì della vittoria - Vieni! taffretta! - Or tutti sorgete). One of the most difficult roles for the female voice and Verdi did not go easier elsewhere in the opera either.

Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
SCENA VII
Lady Macbeth sola.
LADY
Duncano sarà qui?...qui? qui la notte?...
Or tutti sorgete, - ministri infernali,
Che al sangue incorate,- spingete i mortali!
Tu, notte, ne avvolgi - di tenebre immota;
Qual petto percota - non vegga il pugnal.
English Libretto or Translation:
LADY MACBETHDuncan will be here?
Here? Spend the night here?
Arise, all the
agents of hell
that rouse mortals
to bloody acts!
Night, wrap us
In motionless darkness.
Do not let the knife see
The breast which it strikes.
