Chiara al pari di lucida stella (Vivaldi) Verónica Cangemi

Chiara al pari di lucida stella from the opera Orlando furioso, RV 728
by Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741)

Verónica Cangemi, soprano
Ensemble Matheus
Jean-Christophe Spinosi, conductor

Chiara al pari di lucida stella
scintillando tua candida fede
prometteva mercede al mio amor.

Ma il pensier di lasciarmi crudele
fa temer, che non sia sempre bella
la facella, onde avvampa il mio cor.

Shining like a star, matchlessly bright,
your immaculate faith has promised
mercy unto my love.

But the thought of you cruelly leaving me
causes me to fear that my heart has burned
for a flame that is not always worthy.
