Summary:
Dvořák's colorful romantic fairy tale, based on the classic story of the Little Mermaid, comes to life with the enchanting Gabriela Beňačková in the title role, the water nymph Rusalka who sings the famous "Song to the Moon." Ben Heppner stars as the Prince she falls in love with. Sergei Koptchak is Rusalka's father, the Water Gnome, Stefania Toczyska sings the witch Ježibaba, and Janis Martin is the Foreign Princess, Rusalka's rival. John Fiore conducts this performance from the opera's Met premiere run.
Contents:
Overture
Hou, hou, hou, stojí mĕsíc vodou
I pĕknĕ vítám
Hastrmánku, tatíčku!
Semčasto přichází a v objetí mé stoupá
Mĕsíčku nanebi hlubokém (Song to the moon)
Tavoda studi, studi, Ježibabo!
Staletá moudrost tvá všechno ví
Tvoje moudrost všechno tuší
Čury mury fuk
Jel mladý lovec, jel a jel
Ustaňte v lovu, na hrad vrafte se
Sestry, jedna schází z nás!
Jářku, jářku, klouĉe milé
U nás v lese straší
Již týden dlíš mi po boku
Zda na chvíli princ vzpomene si přec
Ballet
Bĕda! Bĕda! Ubohá Rusalko bledá
Celý svĕ nedá ti, nedá
Kvétiny bílé po cestĕ
Rusalko, znášmne, znáš?
Vidíš je, vidíš? Jsou tu zas
Necitelná vodní moci
Aj, aj? Už jsi se navrátila?
Vyrvána životu v hlubokou samotu
Že se bojíš? Třesky, plesky
Mám, zlaté vlásky mám
Bílá moje lani!
Milácku, znáš mne, znáš?
Líbej mne, líbej, mírmi prej.
