JORGE A. BOSSO, DUO III, “DOLCISSIME VITE NOSTRE …”
“In the fall of 2012, I began working on a stage work inspired by the composer Carlo Gesualdo. I wrote the lyrics of Gesualdo, Alchimista dei Suoni myself. This encompassed a polyphonic drama in one act for five singers, a madrigal quintet and instrumental ensemble. An oneiric voyage from his time, the era of Galileo, Giordano Bruno, and Torquato Tasso until our time.
I also had the idea of writing an instrumental composition based on the fourth madrigal from the Fifth Book by Carlo Gesualdo.

Dolcissima mia vita,
A che tardate la bramata aita?
Credete forse che’l bel foco ond’ardo
Sia per finir perché torcete’l guardo?
Ahi, non fia mai, ché brama il mio desire
O d’amarti, o morire.

Sweetest life,
Why do you withhold the relief which
I long for?
Perhaps you think that my burning
desire will end,
Because you turn away whenever
I see you?
Alas, this cannot be,
I must either love you or die

The piece was written for and dedicated to Dora Schwarzberg and Dan Styffe.
