Tosca
[Oct. 15th, 2006|01:26 am]
I went to see "Tosca". Actually I am not an opera fan but like some opera songs. Of the three main performers only one is good -- A girl who performed Tosca. I like her voice in her scene with Scarpia in Act II but her overall acting reminded me too much of a professional actor. A man who played as Cavaradossi was more natural in his acting but he couldn't quite hold his own against the orchestra. In overall, the three performers were not too bad. The story is too predictable and it moved very slowly in Act I.
(Lyrics)
E lucevan le stelle The stars were gleaming,
ed olezzava la terra, The ground was fragrant...
stridea l'uscio dell'orto, The creak of the garden gate,
e un passo sfiorava la rena... light footsteps in the sand,
Entrava ella, fragrante, the smell of her hair. She came
Mi cadea fra le braccia... and fell into my arms.
Oh dolci baci, o languide carezze, Oh tender kisses, sweet caresses,
Mentr'io fremente While, trembling, I beheld
La belle forme discioglea dai veli! Her beautiful form freed of its gown.
Svani per sempre il sogno mio d'amore.. Gone forever is my dream of love.
L'ora e' fuggita... Time has fled, and I die in despair
E muoio disperato! I die in despair,
E non ho amato mai tanto la vita! But never have I loved life so much
