Либретто:

Alexander's Feast
or The Power of Music
HWV 75
Ode in onore di Santa Cecilia in due parti
Musica di
George Frideric Handel
Libretto di N. Hamilton, da Ode for St. Cecilia's Day di John Dryden
Prima esecuzione: 19 Febbraio 1736, Covent Garden, Londra

Parte prima
1. Overture: Allegro - Andante

2. Recitative (tenor)
'Twas at the royal feast, for Persia won
By Philip's warlike son:
Aloft in awful state
The god-like hero sate
On his imperial throne:
His valiant peers were plac'd around;
Their brows with roses and with myrtles bound.
So should desert in arms be crown'd.
The lovely Thais by his side
Sate like a blooming Eastern bride,
In flow'r of youth, and beauty's pride.

3. Air (tenor) and Chorus
Happy, happy, happy pair!
None but the brave,
None but the brave,
None but the brave deserves the fair.

4. Recitative (tenor)
Timotheus plac'd on high,
Amid the tuneful quire,
With flying fingers touch'd the lyre.
The trembling notes ascend the sky,
And heav'nly joys inspire.
5. Accompagnato (soprano)

The song began from Jove,
Who left his blissful seats above;
(Such is the pow'r of mighty love)
A dragon's fiery form bely'd the God;
Sublime, on radiant spires he rode,
When he to fair Olympia press'd,
And while he sought her snowy breast:
Then, round her slender waist he curl'd,
And stamp'd an image of himself, a sov'reign of the world.

6. Chorus
The list'ning crowd admire the lofty sound,
"A present deity!" they shout around;
"A present deity!" the vaulted roofs rebound.

7. Air (soprano)
With ravish'd ears
The monarch hears,
Assumes the God,
Affects to nod,
And seems to shake the spheres.

8. Recitative (tenor)
The praise of Bacchus, then, the sweet musician sung;
Of Bacchus, ever fair, and ever young:
The jolly God in triumph comes;
Sound the trumpets, beat the drums:
Flush'd with a purple grace,
He shows his honest face;
Now give the hautboys breath; he comes, he comes!

9. Air (bass) and Chorus
Bass
Bacchus, ever fair and young,
Drinking joys did first ordain;
Bacchus' blessings are a treasure,
Drinking is the soldier's pleasure:
Rich the treasure,
Sweet the pleasure,
Sweet is pleasure after pain.
Chorus
Bacchus' blessings are a treasure,
Drinking is the soldier's pleasure:
Rich the treasure,
Sweet the pleasure,
Sweet is pleasure after pain.

10. Recitative (tenor)
Sooth'd with the sound, the king grew vain;
Fought all his battles o'er again;
And thrice he routed all his foes, and thrice he slew the slain!
The master saw the madness rise,
His glowing cheeks, his ardent eyes;
And while he Heav'n and earth defy'd,
Chang'd his hand, and check'd his pride.

11. Accompagnato (soprano)
He chose a mournful muse,
Soft pity to infuse.

12. Air (soprano)
He sung Darius great and good,
By too severe a fate,
Fall'n from his high estate,
And welt'ring in his blood:
Deserted at his utmost need,
By those his former bounty fed,
On the bare earth expos'd he lies,
Without a friend to close his eyes.

13. Accompagnato (soprano)
With downcast looks the joyless victor sate,
Revolving in his alter'd soul,
The various turns of chance below,
And, now and then, a sigh he stole,
And tears began to flow.

14. Chorus
Behold Darius, great and good,
Fall'n, fall'n, fall'n, fall'n, welt'ring in his blood;
On the bare earth expos'd he lies,
Without a friend to close his eyes.

15. Recitative (tenor)
The mighty master smil'd to see
That love was in the next degree;
'Twas but a kindred sound to move,
For pity melts the mind to love:

16. Arioso (soprano)
Softly sweet, in Lydian measures,
Soon he sooth'd his soul to pleasures.

17. Air (soprano)
War, he sung, is toil and trouble,
Honour but an empty bubble,
Never ending, still beginning,
Fighting still, and still destroying;
If the world be worth thy winning,
Think, oh think it worth enjoying,
Lovely Thais sits beside thee,
Take the good the Gods provide thee.
War he sung. . . da capo

18a. Chorus
The many rend the skies, with loud applause;
So love was crown'd, but music won the cause.

19. Air (soprano)
The Prince, unable to conceal his pain,
Gaz'd on the fair,
Who caus'd his care;
And sigh'd and look'd, sigh'd and look'd,
Sigh'd and look'd, and sigh'd again:
At length with love and wine at once oppress'd,
The vanquish'd victor sunk upon her breast.
The Prince. . . da capo
18b. Chorus
The many rend the skies, with loud applause;
So love was crown'd, but music won the cause.
Parte seconda

20. Accompagnato (tenor) and Chorus
Tenor
Now strike the golden lyre again,
A louder yet — and yet a louder strain!
Break his bands of sleep asunder,
And rouse him, like a rattling peal of thunder.
Hark, hark! — the horrid sound
Has rais'd up his head,
As awak'd from the dead,
And amaz'd, he stares around.
Chorus
Break his bands of sleep asunder,
And rouse him, like a rattling peal of thunder.

21. Air (bass)
Revenge, revenge, Timotheus cries,
See the furies arise,
See the snakes that they rear,
How they hiss in their hair,
And the sparkles that flash from their eyes!
Behold a ghastly band,
Each a torch in his hand!
Those are Grecian ghosts, that in battle were slain,
And unbury'd, remain
Inglorious on the plain.
Revenge. . . da capo

22. Accompagnato (tenor)
Give the vengeance due
To the valiant crew:
Behold how they toss their torches on high,
How they point to the Persian abodes,
And glitt'ring temples of their hostile gods!

23. Air (tenor)
The princes applaud with a furious joy;
And the king seiz'd a flambeau, with zeal to destroy.

24. Air (soprano) and Chorus
Soprano
Thais led the way,
To light him to his prey;
And like another Helen, fir'd another Troy.
The princes applaud with a furious joy;
And the king seiz'd a flambeau, with zeal to destroy.
Chorus
The princes applaud with a furious joy;
And the king seiz'd a flambeau, with zeal to destroy.

25. Accompagnato (tenor) and Chorus
Tenor
Thus long ago,
Ere heaving bellows learn'd to blow,
While organs yet were mute,
Timotheus to his breathing flute,
And sounding lyre,
Could swell the soul to rage, or kindle soft desire.
Chorus
At last divine Cecilia came,
Inventress of the vocal frame;
The sweet enthusiasts from her sacred store,
Enlarg'd the former narrow bounds,
And added length to solemn sounds,
With Nature's mother-wit, and arts unknown before.

26. Recitative
Tenor
Let old Timotheus yield the prize,
Bass
Or both divide the crown;
He rais'd a mortal to the skies,
Tenor
She drew an angel down.

27. Soli and Chorus
Let old Timotheus yield the prize,
Or both divide the crown;
He rais'd a mortal to the skies,
She drew an angel down.
Additional Chorus
Your voices tune, and raise them high,
Till th'echo from the vaulted sky
The blest Cecilia's name;
Music to Heav'n and her we owe,
The greatest blessing that's below;
Sound loudly then her fame:
Let's imitate her notes above,
And may this evening ever prove,
Sacred to harmony and love.

Fine dell’ode

У меня есть партитура, но только бумажная. В электронном виде не могу сделать. Либретто там подтекстовано параллельно на двух языках: немецком и английском.

[Фальстаф]

А у меня только клавираусцуг на тех же двух языках...

Странно, я всегда был убежден, что это оратория, а не опера... Вроде бы так нам и Гамрат-Курек рассказывал... да и сольные партии там обозначены по голосам , а не по именам...
