Video Description:
Patrick Cassidy
Vide Cor Meum is a song composed by Patrick Cassidy based on Dante's "La Vita Nuova", specifically on the sonnet "A ciascun'alma presa", in chapter 3 of the Vita Nuova. The song was produced by Patrick Cassidy and Hans Zimmer and was performed by Libera / Lyndhurst Orchestrathe, conducted by Gavin Greenaway. Singers are Danielle de Niese and Bruno Lazzaretti, who play Beatrice and Dante, respectively.
The song first appeared in the movie Hannibal, while Dr. Hannibal Lecter and Inspector Pazzi see an outdoor opera in Florence, and was especially composed for the movie. This opera piece was chosen to be performed at the Oscars in 2002 during the presentation of a lifetime achievement award to producer Dino De Laurentiis and at the 53rd Annual Emmy awards.
It was used later in Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven, during King Baldwin IV's funeral.
Lyrics
ITALIAN/LATIN
Chorus: E pensando di lei
Mi sopragiunse uno soave sonno
Ego dominus tuus
Vide cor tuum
E d'esto core ardendo
Cor tuum
(Chorus: Lei paventosa)
Umilmente pascea.
Appreso gir lo ne vedea piangendo.
La letizia si convertia
In amarissimo pianto
Io sono in pace
Cor meum
Io sono in pace
Vide cor meum
ENGLISH
Chorus: And thinking of her
Sweet sleep overcame me
I am your master
See your heart
And of this burning heart
Your heart
(Chorus: She trembling)
Obediently eats.
Weeping, I saw him then depart from me.
Joy is converted
To bitterest tears
I am in peace
My heart
I am in peace
See my heart

just magnificent!
Coro: Y el pensamiento/ de su dulce sueño me vencia.
Soy tu maestro / Mirate el corazón/ Y de este corazón ardiente / tu corazón / (Coro: temblando) / Obedientmente pace. / Llorando le veia entonces alejarte de mi.
La alegria se convierte / en las más amargantes lágrimas.
Estoy en paz.
Corazón mío, estoy en paz. / Mira mi corazón.
Rumor is that Patrick Cassidy, the composer, was so overwhelmed with response to this aria that he has intentions to compose a full opera based on the works of Dante, particularly La Vita Nuova, and Dante's love for Beatrice who inspired him.
Do a google for "Princeton Dante Project", enter the site, select "Vita Nuova". The lyrics for Vide Cor Meum come from chapter III,1-15, paragraphs 3 thru 7.
I'm hopeful and anxious for Cassidy's further exposition of Dante.
Thankyou, Patrick. If you never write another note, it matters not one jot. This tune / song / aria is a masterpiece and has no betters through all the history of music.
