Description
Trumpet, soprano voice and basso continuo - Grade 4
SKU: ET.TP155
Composed by Alessandro Melani. Arranged by Edward H. Tarr. Baroque. Editions BIM #TP155. Published by Editions BIM (ET.TP155).ISBN 9790207013422.
The cantata "All'armi, pensieri" is one of five which Melani wrote for soprano with trumpet. Three of the five, including the present work, also include continuo but exclude the usual strings.
The poetic text – by an un known author – treats the typical Baroque antithesis, war and love ("guerra" and "amore"), whereby the trumpet symbolizes the former and the voice, in singing of the pains of love, takes the part of the latter.
