Concert du 8 mars 2020 dédié aux "Compositrices du XVIe au XXIe siècle", en la chapelle Sainte-Thérèse de Montmagny (95). Direction : Agnès Blin. Harpe : Adélaïde Legras. De gauche à droite : Harim Kim (soprano), Antoine Morise (contre-ténor), Hélène Perrin (soprano), Agnès Leclercq (alto), Victoria N’Zingoula (mezzo) et Carine Carpentier (soprano). Référence : Vittoria Aleotti. Cor mio perche pur piangi. Première édition : dans Ghirlanda de madrigali, no. 6, 1593. Adaptation pour SSAA par Agnès Blin (2019). Cette pièce interroge l’origine de la douleur et des larmes. Paroles : Cor mio, perchè pur piangi, A che ti struggi, Se alla tua pena inusitata e nuova Rimedio non si trova? Io piango che il mio pianto Non è sì duro, sì pungente e forte Che mentre io piango tanto Non faccia ai miei martir pietosa morte. Poco sarìa la doglia Se ad ogni suo desire L’uom potesse morire Ma ve’l sostiene in vita e in questa spoglia Acciò più lungo sia nostro languire.  less
