II. JOURNEY
La Partenza, K. 436
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Ecco quell fiero i stante,
Nice, mia Nice addio.
Come vivrò ben mio,
Così lontan da te?
Io vivrò sempre in pene,
io non avrò più bene;
E tu, chi sa se mai ti sovverrai di me?
Now comes the painful instant,
Nice, my Nice, goodbye.
How can I live, my love,
So far from you?
I will live in pain,
I will no longer be well;
And who knows if you will even remember me?
El Vito
Andalusian Folk Song/arr. Mack Wilberg
Casey Cook, primo
Eric Gibson, secondo
Colin Knoth, conductor
Con el vito, vito, vito
No me mires tu chiquilla,
Que me voy á esmoroná
No me mires tu chiquilla,
Que me voy á desmayá.
Anda vete que no quiero
Pasar por ti mas fatigas.
Si te digo que te vayas
Que mas quieres que to diga!
With Saint Vitus (patron saint of dancers)
Do not look at me, little sweetheart,
Or I will fall in love
Do not look at me, little sweetheart,
Or I will faint.
Leave me, for I do not want
to pass through more pain.
If I tell you to go
What more do you want me to say!
