Deh consoli by Domenico Obizzi — Lyrics
Deh consol'il mio tormento
chiusque sciolto porta il core
da la ret'empia d'Amore,
e ingrembo a lita vive contento.
Amo Donna si spierata,
che gioisce a miei martiri,
che ridente a miei sospiri
e sdegna la crudel d'esser amata.

About Deh consoli
Domenico Obizzi's Deh consoli is a solo aria for soprano voice, sung in Italian. The music opens with a sense of agitation, perhaps reflecting the torment described in the text. The singer laments unrequited love, portraying a cruel beloved who rejoices in their suffering. The text speaks of a heart languishing to the point of death, desperately seeking solace but finding only indifference. The aria ultimately moves towards a stark conclusion, where death is presented as the only possible remedy for such profound sorrow. Obizzi's setting captures the dramatic and emotional intensity of the Italian Baroque aria tradition.
