“Inumano fratel” / “Stille Amare” (Tolomeo) lyrics

“Inumano fratel” (Tolomeo)
Inumano fratel, barbara madre,
ingiusto Araspe, dispietata Elisa,
Numi, o furie del Ciel, Cielo nemico,
implacabil destin, tiranna sorte,
tutti, tutti v’invito
a gustare il piacer della mia morte.
Ma tu, consorte amata,
non pianger, no, mentre che lieto spiro;
basta che ad incontrar l’anima mia,
quando uscirà dal sen, mandi un sospiro.

Inhuman brother, barbarous mother,
unjust Araspe, pitiless Elisa.
gods, or furies of heaven, hostile heaven,
implacable destiny, tyrannical fate,
all of you, I invite all of you
to taste the pleasure of my death.
But you, my cherished lover,
don’t cry, no, for I am happy;
let it be enough that when you encounter my soul
leaving my breast, you send a sigh.

“Stille amare” (Tolomeo)

Stille amare, già vi sento
tutte in seno, la morte chiamar.
Già vi sento smorzare il tormento,
già vi sento tornarmi a bear.

Bitter drops, I already feel you
in my chest beckoning death.
I already feel you extinguishing my torment,
I already feel you returning me to happiness.

Key Notes Musical notes

Nina Shekhar, currently a PhD candidate in Music Composition at Princeton University, is already seeing success in her early career: her piece Lumina received an ASCAP Foundation prize in 2021.
Countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo is best known for his recent turn in the title role of Philip Glass’ Akhnaten in its two runs at the Metropolitan Opera. Gregory Spears’ Love Story is inspired by a poem by 22nd US Poet Laureate Tracy K. Smith.
Tchaikovsky wrote of his fourth symphony “Never yet has any of my orchestral works cost me so much labour, but I’ve never yet felt such love for any of my things.…Perhaps I’m mistaken, but it seems to me that this symphony is better than anything I’ve done so far.”
