Dance Me to the End of Love

I couldn't find this Trio Los Panchos hit with Eydie Gormé, so I decided to record it myself. So that my friends and family can enjoy one of the favorite songs of my late, great grandparents.

Sin Ti

Quien Sera

One of my favorite songs to sing. The aria is from the opera Gianni Schicchi (1918), by Giacomo Puccini.

It is in Italian. The meaning of the lyrics are as follows:

Oh my dear papa,
I love him, he is handsome, handsome.
I want to go to Porta Rossa
To buy the ring!

Yes, yes, I want to go there!
And if my love were in vain,
I would go to the Ponte Vecchio
And throw myself in the Arno!

I am anguished and tormented!
Oh God, I'd like to die!
Papa, have pity, have pity!
Papa, have pity, have pity!

O Mio Babbino Caro

Aria from Der Schauspieldirektor (The Impresario), K. 486,  a comic Singspiel written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Bester Jüngling

Poem by Louise de Vilmorin from song cycle Fiançailles pour rire, Music by Francis Poulenc
In French. Translation:

Amorous couple with unfamiliar accents, 
the violin and its player please me.
I love these long, drawn out wailing,
on the cord of uneasiness
In chords on the cords of the hanged,
at the hour when the Laws fell silent,
the heart, formed like a strawberry,
offers itself to love like an unknown fruit.

Violon

Dream a little dream of me in French, recorded live during performance.
