Dopo notte - Joyce DiDonato LIVE - Furore, Salzburg - Handel

Salzburg, 2nd August 2009

The very last Furore concert, I'm afraid. Joyce DiDonato stepped in (with broken leg) for Rolando Villazon who had health problems. It was thus the only concert with Paul McCreesh conducting instead of Christophe Rousset.

From G.F. Handel: Ariodante, 1734

Aria of ARIODANTE
************
Dopo notte, atra e funesta,
splende in Ciel più vago il sole,
e di gioia empie la terra.

Mentre in orrida tempesta
il mio legno è quasi assorto,
giunge in porto,
e'l lido afferra.
************
After black and gloomy night
the sun shines more radiantly in the sky
and fills the earth with joy.

Whereas in the fearful tempest
my barque was almost enguelfed,
now it has entered harbour
and reached the shore.
************
