Maria Callas - La Forza del destino - Me pellegrina ed orfana

Giuseppe verdi (1813-1901)
La forza del destino - opera in four acts
Leonora - Maria Callas
Orchestra del Teatro alla Scala
Conducted by Tullio Serafin
1954
Me pellegrina ed orfana,
lungi dal patrio nido,
un fato inesorabile
sospinge a stranio lido;
colmo di tristi immagini,
da suoi rimorsi affranto,
è il cor di questa misera
dannato a eterno pianto, ecc.
Ti lascio, ahimè, ahimè, con lagrime
dolce mia terra, addio.
Ahimè, ahimè, non avrà termine
Per me sì gran dolore!
Addio
An orphan and a wanderer,
far from my native land,
a pitiless fate
drives me on, to a foreign shore;
tortured by fearful dreams,
broken with remorse,
this poor ones heart
is condemned to eternal weeping, etc.
I leave thee, alas, alas, in tears,
sweet homeland! Farewell.
Alas, so great a sorrow
has no end!
Farewell
Errante et orpheline,
loin du toit paternel
un sort inexorable
mentraîne vers un rivage inconnu.
Rempli de lugubres visions,
effrayé par le remords,
mon coeur est, par son désespoir
condamné à des pleurs éternels, etc.
Hélas, cest dans les larmes que je te quitte,
ma chère patrie ! Adieu.
Hélas, une douleur aussi cruelle
ne finira jamais !
Adieu
Bald werd ich fern der Heimat sein,
Muß sie für immer meiden,
Der gnadenlose Schicksalsruf der Liebe
Zwingt mich zu scheiden...
Traurig wird jeder Tag vergehn;
Und wird mein Herz verzagen,
Wer hilft mir dann, der Seele Last,
Die Qual der Reue zu ertragen? usw.
Leb wohl, mit Tränen scheide ich,
Geliebte Heimat, auf ewig!
Nie wird meine heiße Sehnsucht
Nach dir vergehn.
Teure geliebte Heimat, leb ewig wohl!

[@alfredoloyola921]

i just love this area!!

[@BaroneVitellioScarpia1]

The best.

[@CraigTyThompson]

She recorded the entire opera once. I wish there was a live recording but none survived. She performed the demanding role in the early days when they could not find another soprano who could cope with its difficulties.

[@aseed333]

she recorded the whole opera or just arias?

[@aetion]

The whole. As far as I know this is the only complete recording of La Forza with Maria Callas. More information here www.naxos.com/mainsite/blurbs_reviews.asp?item_code=8.111322-24&catNum=8111322&filetype=About%20this%20Recording&language=English

[@jagodasawczuk2825]

There is one version from La Scala :)

[@fabriziomariagarzi5534]

Per quanto la Tebaldi si sia prodigata in quest'opera la Maria non ha rivali possibili.

[@BillyBudd56]

She sings with her head not her heart

[@francoisherisson2910]

No, with both !

[@BaroneVitellioScarpia1]

She always sang with her heart.

[@grahambaker3837]

There are no resonance chambers in the human heart lol.

[@lutandomhlalase4416]

Tebaldi was better in this aria. So Callas fans insult me in the comments.
