- Written in 1643, just months before Monteverdi's death at the age of 76, 'Pur ti miro' lies at the end of his masterpiece "L’incoronazione di Poppea". A duet between Nerone & Poppea, it is perhaps one of the most glorious examples of intertwining melody, harmony and rhythm, resulting in a moving unison note as the lovers become one.
Performed here by married couple Alice Gribbin (soprano) & Benjamin Hulett, with Oliver John Ruthven at the harpsichord.
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
I gaze at you
I tighten closer to you
I delight in you
I am bound to you
I no longer suffer
I no longer die
Oh my life, Oh my treasure.
I am yours
You are mine
My hope, say it, say,
The idol of mine, Yes, my love,
You are mine, tell me so
The idol of mine,
Yes, my love,
Yes, my heart, my life, yes.
I gaze at you
I tighten closer to you
I delight in you
I am bound to you
I no longer suffer
I no longer die
Oh my life, Oh my treasure.
Just what I needed after a long day picture framing.
