Amor è qual vento

from Händel's Orlando

(Recorded and edited by Jan Capinski)

Performed by Tesni, as a Waterperry Opera Festival Young Artist (2023), and accompanied by Ashley Beauchamp at St. John the Divine Church, Kennington.

​

In this piece Tesni plays the character of Dorinda. The man she loves, Medoro, has just told her that he, in fact, loves another woman. In response, Dorinda says she is completely fed-up with the whirlwind that is love. She claims that love is merely a moments pleasure in return for a lifetime's worth of grief..!
