Summary:
Verdi's fourth opera, set during the First Crusade, is a true rarity. But thanks to James Levine's dynamic and impassioned conducting and a great cast; Met audiences were thrilled by the work. Luciano Pavarotti is Oronte, the Muslim prince so desperately in love with the captured Giselda (Lauren Flanigan) that he is willing to convert to Christianity. Bruno Beccaria is Giselda's Father Arvino and Paul Plishka is the exiled hermit Pagano.

Preludio : Oh nobile esempio!
Qui nel luogo santo e pio
T'assale un tremito!
Or s'ascolti il voler cittadino!
A te nell'ora infausta
Sciagurata! Hai tu creduto
O speranza di vendetta
Tutta tremante ancor l'anima io sento
Vieni! già pose Arvino
Parricida!
È dunque vero?
Oh madre mia
La mia letizia infondere
Come poteva un angelo
E ancor silenzio!
Ma chi vieni a questa volta?
Sei tu l'uom della caverna?
La bella straniera
Oh madre dal cielo
Se vano è il pregare
No! no! giusta causa non è d'lddio
Gerusalem! Gerusalem!
Dove sola m'inoltro?
Oh belle, a questa misera, tende lombarde
Che vid'io mai?
Preludio
Qui posa il fianco
Qual voluttà trascorrere
Componi, o cara vergine
In cielo benedetto
Qual prodigio!
O Signore, dal tetto natio ci chiamasti
Al Siloe! al Siloe!
Quest'è mia tenda
Un breve istante
Te lodiamo, gran Dio di vittoria.
