Corre al suo fin by Hans Nielsen — Lyrics
Corre al suo fin mia vita
Ne fuor ch'un bacio attende
un bacio che sol può darle aita,
che puoi tu meno darmi,
che poss'io chieder meno.

About Corre al suo fin
A secular Italian madrigal for SSATB voices, this piece by Hans Nielsen reflects on the fleeting nature of life and the desperate need for a single kiss to bring solace. The text expresses a plea for affection, questioning the minimal request and highlighting the immense desire for a single, life-affirming gesture. The composer masterfully captures the poignancy of the lyrics, creating a musical setting that evokes a sense of longing and urgency. This work is ideal for a choir seeking to explore the rich emotional landscape of Renaissance part-music, offering a compelling vocal challenge and a deeply felt expression of human vulnerability.
