Amor, io sento l'alma

This Italian secular madrigal for three voices (ATT) evokes a moment of intense romantic longing. The text speaks of love’s fire reigniting the soul, a desire to burn anew with ancient passion. The singer expresses a willingness to return to this old yoke, finding contentment in the heat of their feelings. It’s a piece that would suit a programme of Renaissance part-music, perhaps for a concert celebrating the enduring power of unrequited or returned affection, where the expressive harmonies of the madrigal tradition can be fully explored.
