George Frideric Handel (1685 -1759)
Augelletti che cantate (1711)
Rinaldo was not only Handel’s first opera for London but also the first Italian opera specifically composed for the London stage. The story of love, battle and redemption set at the time of the First Crusade is loosely based on Torquato Tasso's epic poem Gerusalemme liberata (Jerusalem Delivered), and its staging involved many original and vivid effects. Augelletti che cantate is a beautiful Aria in the first act. The opera of background is that Almirena, in a beautiful garden, asks the birds and breezes to reveal where she might find Rinaldo, during the performance of which living birds were let loose upon the stage. The libretto of original Italian is “Augelletti, che cantate, Zeffiretti che spirate Aure dolci intorno a me, Il mio ben dite dov'e!” By translating the meaning is about little birds that sing, zephyrs that waft, breezes sweet around me, my beloved, tell me, where is he? This charming aria described a beautiful girl to love is full of expectations, she come to a grove to find her lover with birds singing.
