Introduction by Deborah Voigt
Prelude
Qui si attenda
Sì, vuol di Francia il Rege
Ah quando all'ara scorgemi
In tal giorno di contento
Fra voi perché non veggio Leicester?
Hai nelle qiostre, o Talbo
Questa immago, questo foglio
Se fida tanto
Sei to confuso
Quali sensi! Ell'è commosa
Era d'amor l'immagine
Vieni, Lo chiede il barbaro
Allenta il piè, Regina
Oh nube! Che lieve per l'aria
Nella pace del mesto riposo
Ah! Non m'inganna la gioia?
Da tutti abbandonata
Del suo core
Ah! Se il mio cor tremò giammi
Qual loco è questo?
È sempre la stessa: superba, orgoliosa -
Va: lo chiedi
Va, preparati furente a soffrir l'e stremo fato
Introduction to Act II by Deborah Voigt
E pensi? tardi
Quella vita a me funesta
Ah! Deh! Per pieta sospendi
D'una sorella, o barbara, Vanne, indegno: t'appare sul volto
La perfida insultarmi anche volea
Oh mio buon Talbot!
Quando di luce rosea
Lascia contenta al carcere
Vedeste?
Vedemmo
Oh truce apparato!
Anna, Qui piu sommessi favellate
Deh! Tu di un umile preghiera il suono
Oh colpo! - E gia vicino del tuo morir l'stante
Di un cor che more reca il perdono
Giunge il conte
Ah! Se un giorno da questa ritorte
