sierra Podgurny I hope you know this song is about a BOY from the opera RINALDO, indeed he isn't a boy either is a a nobleman of the House of Este. The song is singed by a countertenor, or in the past by a castrato :)
Olalla Vargas No, it's not. It's not Rinaldo singing this, it's Almirena, Rinaldo's loved one. She got captured and this is the song in which she sings for freedom. :)
Rahel Erki is right. At Rinaldo's premiere in London in 1711, this song was sung by Isabella Girardeau (Wikipedia). Having myself stumbled upon a disturbing clip from the movie Farinelli when searching for this song, I suspect your confusion probably comes from the fact that some moviemakers wanted to make a movie about a castrato, and took some artistic licence with the Rinaldo story. One could wish they'd written their own piece of music instead of appropriating Handel's. Almirena may be sad while singing this song, but it is in the context of a plot that ends happily for her, so I see nothing wrong with singing this for a 50th wedding anniversary!
yes this is about the girl,but nowadays it's become a symbol of what the castrates had to go through once,and the original was sang in austria by a castrato :)
angelamistralejan Sí tienes 2 tipos de voz como yo entonces los puedes turnar porque de Lascia ch'io pianga hasta antes de il duolo infranga la canto como Heldentenor y desde Il duolo infranga hasta el final como Contratenor heroico pero como yo la sé cantar también en este idioma entonces como Heldentenor la canto en italiano y como Contratenor heroico la canto en este idioma el inconveniente es que no voy a clases de Canto de entonación de notas. Tengo que usar Heldentenor porque no se usa Tenor heroico por lo que para buscar mi primer tipo de voz en el buscador de Google tiene que ser por el nombre en alemán.
Hola soy tenor y agradezco mucho este aporte tan importante de este material. Muchas gracias. Me refiero específicamente a las excelentes pistas que nos proveen
@katorela hello, I have a question. Can I use the orchestration from lascia ch'io pianga to sing along and to make a video of the first part? It's so a beautiful orchestration. Thank you!

Does anyone know why the sheet music is written in the key of F yet most of the opera singers sing it in the key of E. Love the Patricia Petibon version...the one where she wears the big red hat. She sings it in E. It looks like it was written in F originally from the little piece of the original score that still exists.
Lucas Uylings Um.... Honey, it's a sad piece of classical music. If you played this fast, it would ruin the point. And the person who posted this, never claimed any rights to it. Stealing implies you took it without permission and claimed ownership. Neither of which the person who posted claimed to have done. I take it you support RU-vid's copyright policy XD
I don't own the rights for this orchestration but it shouldn't be a problem for you to use it for your Opera show. Good luck! Share the link, if possible. Would love to hear your show.
