Sarri: Se pur fosse il cor capace

Description

Forces: soprano, flute & continuo

The eternal ‘if’ cantata. ‘If my heart was able to enjoy sweet peace…’ A really beautiful opening Affettuoso/Amoroso aria, quick, to the point recitative and a snappy little Andante to finish. This is a really enjoyable piece!
