Musica Proibita Op.5 Per Soprano o Tenore Stanislao Gastaldon

Text: Flick-Flock
Sopran (oder Tenor) und Klavier

"Musica proibita" (Forbidden Music) is a song within a song. A young woman tells of a handsome young man ("un bel garzone") who sings a love song beneath her balcony every night. She longs to sing it herself to re-live the thrill she felt, but her mother has forbidden her. Knowing that her mother has left the house, she sings it, and then recalling the last time she heard him, she sings it again even more intensely.
