Fuggirò tanto Amore by Luca Marenzio — Lyrics
Fuggirò tanto Amore,
Che scemerà l'ardore,
Le fiamm' e le catene,
Che tengono quest'alma in tante pene.
Fuggirò tanto, tanto,
Che cesserà il mio pianto,
Il nodo, l’arco, e ’l strale,
Che tien quest’alma in doglia aspra e mortale.

About Fuggirò tanto Amore
Luca Marenzio's Fuggirò tanto Amore is a secular Italian madrigal for three voices (SAB). The text expresses a fervent desire to escape the torments of love, portraying love as a powerful force that binds the soul in pain with flames and chains. The singer vows to flee so completely that love's ardour will diminish, its tears cease, and the arrows and snares of love will lose their power. This vibrant setting captures the drama and intensity of the poetic lament, making it a compelling choice for a concert programme seeking expressive Renaissance part-music.
