Ensemble Altera
directed by Christopher Lowrey
Welcome joy, and welcome sorrow, Lethe's weed and Hermes' feather; come to-day, and come to-morrow, I do love you both together!
Nightshade with the woodbine kissing; serpents in red roses hissing; Cleopatra regal-dress'd with the aspic at her breast;
dancing music, music sad, both together, sane and mad; muses bright and muses pale;
sombre Saturn, Momus hale; laugh and sigh, and laugh again.
