It Follows

Dear friends, how about a somewhat self-deprecating song?

Recovering

I have found some ways to recover - when I’m anxious or feeling low
I send a mail to my Grandkids just to give them my love
and if it is not too late an answer comes back
and I turn around and continue my restorative sleep

Sometimes when I’m feeling low - I ask for support from my wife
it might happen in the middle of the night and she never will protest
she will just take my little hand and squeezes it so light
and I turn around and continue my restorative sleep

If I wake up in the middle of the night - with a nightmare in my poor little brain
I will pick up my mobile and listen to the songs
that all my music friends have published on the net 
and I turn around and continue my restorative sleep

Sand Castles Under Siege

Orlando (HWV 31) is an opera seria in three acts by George Frideric Handel written for the King's Theatre in London in 1733. The Italian libretto was adapted from Carlo Sigismondo Capece's L'Orlando after Ludovico Ariosto's Orlando Furioso.

Special thanks goes to my fabulous vocal coach Helen Roberts for providing the full orchestral experience.

I hope you'll enjoy!

The Plot

Orlando, a great knight in Charlemagne's army, falls desperately in love with the pagan princess Angelica, who is in turn in love with another man, Medoro. Orlando cannot accept this and he is driven to madness, prevented from causing absolute carnage only by the magician Zoroastro who eventually restores his sanity.

In the aria "Sorge Infausta Una Procella" (An inauspicious tempest rises) Zoroastro tries to mend the circumstances that have caused Orlando to go insane. He declares that it is possible for Orlando's sorrow to one day become his greatest joy.

Lyrics

Sorge infausta una procella, che oscurar fa il cielo e mare
splende fausta poi la stella
che ogni cor ne fa goder.

Può talor il forte errare, ma risorto dall'errore,
quel che pria gli diè dolore, causa immenso il suo poter.

English

Rough tempests arise which obscure heaven and seas.
A brighter star does then impart its rays
and gladdens every heart.

The strong may often err, but when they see their error,
What was once a source of woe, then turns to joy.

Sorge Infausta Una Procella (Orlando - Georg Friedrich Handel)

I didn't choose this obsession it was chosen for me unknowingly.
Lucky me no regrets.
