Η ΙΔΑΝΙΚΗ ΣΥΝΥΠΑΡΞΗ

Ακούτε τον θρύλο Enrico Caruso ( 1873 – 2 Αυγούστου 1921)
στο πασίγνωστο τραγούδι "Mattinata",
που συνέθεσε ειδικά γι' αυτόν ο φίλος του Ιταλός συνθέτης
Ruggiero Leoncavallo (1857 – 9 Αυγούστου1919) .
Ο δίσκος από τον οποίο ακούτε είναι συλλεκτικός:
ηχογραφήθηκε το 1903 για την Gramophone & Typewriter Company.

Mattinata

L'aurora di bianco vestita
Già l'uscio dischiude al gran sol;
Di già con le rosee sue dita
Carezza de' fiori lo stuol!
Commosso da un fremito arcano
Intorno il creato già par;
E tu non ti desti, ed invano
Mi sto qui dolente a cantar.

Metti anche tu la veste bianca
E schiudi l'uscio al tuo cantor!
Ove non sei la luce manca;
Ove tu sei nasce l'amor.

Commosso da un fremito arcano
Intorno il creato già par;
E tu non ti desti, ed invano
Mi sto qui dolente a cantar.

Ove non sei la luce manca;
Ove tu sei nasce l'amor.

Morning Serenade

Dawn, dressed in white,
already opens the door to broad daylight;
already, with her rosy fingers,
she caresses the multitude of flowers!
All around, creation seems stirred
by a mysterious shiver;
and you do not awaken; and in vain
I stay here, aching to sing.

Put on your white dress too,
and open the door to your minstrel!
Where you are not, sunlight is missing;
where you are love dawns.

All around, creation seems stirred
by a mysterious shiver;
and you do not awaken; and in vain
I stay here, aching to sing.

Where you are not, sunlight is missing;
