Dolce Angioletta hor che di te son privo by Alessandro Savioli — Lyrics
Dolce Angioletta hor che di te son privo,
Io non so s'io mi chiami o mort'o vivo,
Morto non gia che mentre io prov'e sento,
Per voi doglia e tormento ancor rimango in vita.

About Dolce Angioletta hor che di te son privo
Alessandro Savioli, a composer of Italian secular vocal music, crafted this expressive madrigal for SATTB voices. The text, a poignant lament of separation, explores the speaker's anguished state of not knowing whether he is alive or dead after his beloved's departure. He feels tormented yet alive, but also deadened by the loss of his heart, which was taken by his beloved. This Italian text, sung by a diverse vocal ensemble, captures the complex emotional turmoil of longing and despair.
