Caro mio ben in a new 3-part arrangement!

So, here’s the new piece.  Sorry not to have it to you earlier but doing these things is very time consuming.  Also, we’ll be working on this for the next 3 sessions, so you’ve plenty of time to do some homework.

*NOTE: Disregard bar 10 in the parts, by the way when listening to the audio.  I’ve left it out because without a piano accompaniment it makes no sense to sit around waiting. 😉

Here are the words and the translation:

Caro mio ben,
My dear beloved,
Credimi almen,
believe me at least,
Senza di te languisce il cor.
without you my heart languishes.
Il tuo fedel
your faithful one
Sospira ognor.
always sighs;
Cessa, crudel,
cease, cruel one,
Tanto rigor!
so much punishment!

And here is a video to help you with the Italian pronunciation:

  1. Having a lovely time singing along with Monserrat! Now I had better knuckle down and learn the alto part ,which looks twiddly, and get my pronounciation right. Thanks for this one Paul and Carol. I love the Italian!
