Summary:
Rossini's rarely performed opera about medieval knights, the Crusades, a beautiful but evil sorceress and an enchanted island calls for not only a soprano of almost superhuman abilities but also requires no fewer than six tenors. International opera star Renée Fleming dazzles in the spectacular role of Armida, who undermines the Crusaders by spiriting away the knight Rinaldo whom she loves--only to lose him at the end, which provokes her awesomely destructive fury. Lawrence Brownlee is Rinaldo, who owes his life to Armida but is torn between his patriotic duty and his love for the enchantress. With tenors John Osborn as Goffredo, Kobie van Rensburg as Ubaldo, and Barry Banks as Carlo. Riccardo Frizza conducts.

Sinfonia
Lieto, ridente oltre l'usato
Ah! no, sia questo
Arditi, all'ire
Si, guerrieri
Germano, a te richiede
Signor, tanto il tuo nome
Sventurata! or che mi resta
Or che farò?
German, se togli al campo
Per me propizio il fato
Cedei, guerrieri, è ver
Opportuna è la scelta
Non soffrirò l'offesa ... E questi son gli allori
Viva Rinaldo!
Sorte ci arride
Principessa, sei tu!
Amor ... possente nome!
Vacilla a quegli accenti
Ah! non poss'io resistere
Ecco il guerriero, il duce
Se pari agli accenti
Che terribile momento!
Deh! se cara a te son io
Vieni, o duce, punisci l'errore
Amica la sorte ... Un astro di sangue
Alla voce d'Armida possente
Sovr'umano poterre
Di ferro e fiamme cint ... Ebben, l'istante è giunto
Dove son io!
Mio ben, questa che premi
No, d'Amor la reggia è questa
Canzoni amorose
D'Amore al dolce impero
Ballo. Marziale ; Andante ; Allegro moderato ; Vivace
Tutto spira d'Armida all'aspetto
Come l'aurette placide
Oh quanto, amico
T'inganni ... Qui tutto è calma
Fuggite, inferni mostri
Soavi catene
O mio Rinaldo ... Amico, inoltra il piè
In quale aspetto imbelle
Vedi qual reo governo
Dov'è ... dove si cela?
Sia lode al ciel
Ed è pur vero?
Se al mio crudel
Dove son io? ... Fuggì!
E' ver
gode quest anima.
