Daniel Behle sings "Pensa che In campo armato" from Antonio Tozzi's "Rinaldo"
The motive is a recurring one and was a staple in the 18th century. Rinaldo + Armida, Ruggiero + Alcina … Sometimes grudgingly, sometimes tragically, the hero has to renounce his love or at least postpone his desires to follow the call of duty. Tozzi writes an aria for the voice of reason that in its virtuosity deserves a hero. Tozzi is probably not one of the "Greats" and a lot of his music is craftsmanship. However, there are more than just a few passages in this particular piece that lift it well above and beyond. The coloraturas are interesting and "galant", and the little chromatic figures that kindly urge the hero on show that it's important for Tozzi to establish that the reasonable one (who may be called Ubaldo) doesn't (only) strongarm Rinaldo into making the right decision; he wants to convince him.
Oh, and obviously, Daniel Behle is excellent.
Libretto and translation below the cut
Pensa, che in campo armato
il tuo valor ti chiama.
Del tuo valor la fama
combatterà con te.
Scordati il volto amato,
fuggi quel dolce incanto.
Maggiore d'ogni vanto
è il trionfar di te.
*
Consider, that onto the battlefield
Your valor summons you.
The renown of your valour
Will fight beside you.
Forget the beloved face,
Flee that sweet enchantment.
Greater than any vain glory,
Is your triumph.
*
Wisse, Dich ruft die Ehre,
Dich ruft die Pflicht zum Streite.
Dort wird Dir Ruhm zur Seite,
der Sieg zum Lohn Dir seyn.
Flieh aus der Wollust Armen!
Fort! lass sie ohn' Erbarmen,
Dich selbst als Held besiegen,
muss höchster Ruhm Dir seyn.
