Monteverdi - Orfeo - Rosa del ciel

Orfeo and Euridice nuptial ceremony.
Monteverdi, Orfeo, act 1.
Orfeo: Furio Zanasi
Dir: J. Savall
TESTO
ORFEO
Rosa del ciel, gemme del giorno, e degna
prole di lui che l'universo affrena,
Sol, ch'il tutto circondi e 'l tutto miri,
da gli stellanti giri,
dimmi: vedesti mai
alcun di me più fortunato amante?
Fu ben felice il giorno,
mio ben, che pria ti vidi,
e più felice l'ora
che per te sospirai,
perch'al mio sospirar tu sospirasti:
felicissimo il punto
che la candida mano
pegno di pura fede a me porgesti.
Se tanti cori avessi
quant'occhi ha il ciel sereno e quante chiome
sogliono i colli aver l'aprile e 'l maggio,
colmi si farien tutti e traboccanti
di quel piacere ch'oggi mi fa contento.
EURIDICE
Io non dirò qual sia
nel tuo gioire, Orfeo, la gioia mia,
che non ho meco il core,
ma teco stassi in compagnia d'Amore;
chiedilo dunque a lui, s'intender brami
quanto lieta i' gioisca e quanto t'ami.
CORO
Lasciate i monti,
lasciate i fonti,
ninfe vezzose e liete
e in questi prati
a i balli usati
leggiadro il piè rendete.
Qui miri il sole
vostre carole
più vaghe assai di quelle
ond'a la luna,
a l'aria bruna,
danzano in ciel le stelle.

❤🎶☁️ Rosa del ciel, vita del mondo, e degna Prole di lui che l'universo affrena, Sol, che 'I tutto circondi e 'l tutto miri Dagli stellanti giri: Dimmi, vedesti mai Di me più lieto e fortunato amante? Fu ben felice il giorno, Mio ben, che pria ti vidi, E più felice l'ora Che per te sospirai, Poich'al mio sospirar tu sospirasti; Felicissimo il punto Che la candida mano, Pegno di pura fede, a me porgesti. Se tanti cori avessi Quanti occhi ha 'I ciel eterno, e quante chiome Han questi colli ameni il verde maggio, Tutti colmi sarieno e traboccanti Di quel piacer ch'oggi mi fa contento. Rose of heaven, light of the world, and worthy offspring of him who holds the universe in thrall, O Sun, who dost encircle and see all from thy celestial orbits, tell me, hast thou ever seen a lover more joyful and fortunate than I? Happy indeed was the day, my dearest, when first I saw you, and happier still the hour when I sighed for you, since you too sighed at my sighing; happiest of all the moment when you gave me your white hand as a pledge of pure faith. Had I as many hearts as eternal heaven has eyes, Or these pleasant hills and verdant May have leaves, all would be full to overflowing with that joy which today delights me

Moin Herr Helfenstein Danke dafür, dass Sie mich auf diese Musik aufmerksam gemacht haben, die mich jedes mal beim Boxtraining unterstützt. Aber manchmal geniesse ich diese Musik mit Trompetengesang und denke über alles nach, über Gott und die Welt. Dieses Musikvideo ist unbezahlbar, den Text fühl ich und es ist ein lyrisches Meisterwerk. Das schöne und phänomenale Musikvideo ist genial gestaltet mit vielen Effekten, die ich nicht einmal in meiner Karriere als Designer gesehen habe! Dieser Text ist Hochpoesie, dass sogar Schiller und Göthe sagen würden: Hut ab!

I noticed that the set and dancers are arranged to look like a skull. Foreshadowing the themes of death and the underworld that run throughout the Orpheus story perhaps?.

Rosa del cielo, día del mundo y digno descendiente de aquel que rige el universo, sol, tú, que todo lo rodeas y que todo lo ves, dime: ¿has visto alguna vez, en tu carrera entre las estrellas, un amante más alegre y feliz que yo? Fue muy feliz, el día, amor mío, en que te vi por primera vez, y más feliz la hora en la que suspiraba por ti, porque tus suspiros respondieron a los míos.

[@cattleman6420012000]

Superb.

[@AlfonsoGB77]

Fue muy feliz el momento en que tú me tendiste tu blanca mano como prenda de la pureza de tu fe. Si hubiese tenido tantos corazones como ojos tiene el cielo eterno y vegetación esas amables colinas en el verde mes de mayo, todos hubieran sido colmados y desbordados por el placer que me proporcionó, ese día, la felicidad.

[@NarutoWR2]

Perfetto :D

[@myrtha77]

beaautiful! but the best ever is victor torres, what a singer!

[@AlfonsoGB77]

I found it in English: Rose of heaven, light of the world, and worthy offspring of him who holds the universe in thrall, O Sun, who dost encircle and see all from thy celestial orbits, tell me, hast thou ever seen a lover more joyful and fortunate than I? Happy indeed was the day, my dearest, when first I saw you, and happier still the hour when I sighed for you, since you too sighed at my sighing;

[@coreliandude76]

@rrobicon That lovely singer is Monserrat, daughter of Jordi Savall, who conducts the ensamble and directs the whole play.

Alas, he does not succeed due to his own impatience, and comes back to the world of the living dejected. But his dad (Apollo) manages to consoles him a bit. *nzbrit1 - I know you probably know the whole story, I was just filling in what you left out!* :)

[@mikitavi]

If we ever heard God sing, he would sound like Furio Zanasi!!

[@mikitavi]

First off, no one sings better than Zanasi. No one. Not Alagna, not Villazon, and NOT one of the "three tenors" as all bandwagon jumpers like to praise. Second, as I think Zanasi is a such an incredibly beautiful singer, that IS how God would sound to me, a gorgeous human voice - we were created in His image after all, and I'm sure that means voice as well. Third, lighten up!! And finally since you insulted my beloved Furio, BITE ME!!

[@coreliandude76]

Dude, I just can't enough of Orfeo and Monteverdi's music. This is a great performance. Anyone knows where can I buy it on DVD?

[@JonathanMartinovici]

@rrobicon i agree! isn't everything so exquisite? So beautiful!

[@AdmRomulus]

Outstanding music and lyrics! Too bad the ending is so sad though :'(

[@mikitavi]

@rrobicon Arianna Savall. She is the daughter of the conducter - Jordi Savall.

[@Laerlend]

@JetLiXXX Ah okay. I do like a lot of new(er) productions, so I know what you mean. Still, I like this production. It's almost like a period movie and a fun, almost campy try at trying to show what the composer may have originally intended it to look like. Have you seen the reconstructed Sacre du printemps ballet? It was beautiful and showed a lot more of what Stravinky meant to express with his music than many modern versions do( to me, at least). I don't think one is better than the other. :)

[@nyckelharpa87]

@rrobicon Arianna Savall. Yes, all is perfect in this version!!! Savalls know something! ;)

E più felice l'hora Che per te sospirai, Poi ch'al mio sospirar tu sospirasti. Felicissimo il punto Che la candida mano, Pegno di pura fede, à me porgete. Se tanti cori havessi Quant'occhi ha'l ciel eterno, e quante chiome Han questi colli ameni il verde maggio, Tutti colmi sarieno e traboccanti Di quel piacer ch'oggi mi fa contento.

[@rominacerati]

I took the lyrics from toddtaradino(dot) com if you are wondering.....

[@Jaydoggy531]

@JetLiXXX Though I have no problem with newer productions/regietheater, I see absolutely nothing wrong or laughable with time/libretto-consistent productions. Perhaps it's you who needs a more open mind. Sit back and relax. Sometimes even traditional productions are becoming a novelty in themselves simply because they're becoming harder to find. I found this production pretty thrilling.

[@LaBelleDanse]

Parking and honking is permissible if you're holding a score in front of you, or are in a recital, or possibly even in a semi-staged production. But in a fully staged production such as this one, gesture is essential. Its absence would look absurd and amateurish.

Montserrat sings beautifully, the only problem is she never pronounces well. In any language! You can NEVER understand what she sings!

[@akumayoxiruma]

Nope, I don't speak Italian yet I understand the words.

[@Laerlend]

@JetLiXXX I wonder why you insist on words like epigonally if you are very well aware most people don't know its meaning? Is it to sound intellectual? That is somewhat silly. Anyhow. I think you miss the point here - IF monteverdi was a contemporary genius he would have laughed at it. But he wasn't. He was a genius, but one of his own time period. So why not recreate some of that for us now to enjoy with somewhat of the original atmosphere and a whole lot of fun?

[@Laerlend]

@JetLiXXX -continued- and anyway, if you're going the ïf he lived now" way, you should whine about the instruments too. I bet he wouldn't have used such outdated things now, being progressive and all. But that could sort of completely change the feel of the music couldn't it? You do seem to like the music. Maybe this version of the opera simply isn't your taste, and doesn't it have a whole lot to do with how "epignol" it is. That's not a negative thing as such. I don't like golden lyres either.
