  • Monteverdi's 'Lamento della Ninfa' depicts the intense melancholy of a nymph, abandoned in her love. This outpouring of sorrow, sung here by Mezzo-Soprano Camilla Seale, is accompanied by a lower voice trio and continuo, performed by members of The Mancunium Consort and Theorbist Philip Turner.

    Translation:
    - O Love - she said,
    Gazing at the sky, as she stood -
    Where's the fidelity
    That the deceiver promised? -
    Poor her!
    - Make my love come back
    As he used to be
    Or kill me, so that
    I will not suffer anymore. -
    Poor her! She cannot bear
    All this coldness!
    - I don't want him to sigh any longer
    But if he's far from me.
    No! He will not make me suffer
    Anymore, I swear!
    He's proud
    Because I languish for him.
    Perhaps if I fly away from him
    He will come to pray to me again.
    If her eyes are more serene
    Than mine,
    O Love, she does not hold in her heart
    A fidelity so pure as mine.
    And you will not receive from those lips
    Kisses as sweet as mine,
    Nor softer. Oh, don't speak!
    Don't speak! you know better than that! -

    What a beautiful haunting sound. Her, with all that 'meat' and substance in her voice, the powerful semi operatic voicing against the simple straight background voices. I really like it. It actually gave me chill bumps in the opening.
    As an aside, the tendency toward actual opera performances being more subtle with the vibrato, and tending toward beautiful coloring rather than the more bombastic sound of the fairly recent past is a welcome change, to my ear. The lighter Patricia Janekova or these type voices here (the link, my favorite Flowers duet) mean that I too can now listen to opera and that end of more traditional singing stylization with immersive enjoyment. I am so glad that has become a trend. If you love this lead, you will love this alto too, almost guaranteed.
