Ewa Podleś (Polish pronunciation: [ˈɛva ˈpɔdlɛɕ]; born on April 26, 1952 in Warsaw) is an internationally celebrated Polish coloratura contralto with a very wide vocal range (from a low A2 up to soprano high D) and great vocal agility. Though known mainly for her Baroque works, Podleś's repertoire ranges from Handel's Giulio Cesare (Cesare) to songs by Shostakovich. Right at the center of her abilities, however, are the contralto roles (some of them "trouser" roles) of Rossini. She is also a specialist in Russian works. She has frequently been labeled a "force of nature." Ewa Podleś and her husband, the accomplished pianist Jerzy Marchwiński, live in Warsaw, Poland...
Lyrics & English Translation
It was night in the garden of the Moorish palace.
Laurels and blossoms perfumed the dark air.
A lovely dancing girl stood hidden by her veil.
The Moorish king came into the garden.
He said, 'I adore you my gentle beauty.'
'Come you shall reign at my side.'
'For I have tired of the Queen.'
The King could barely see in the maiden in the darkness.
'Let me look at your lovely hair, your hand, your foot.'
'Lift the veil that hides you from me.'
'Give your heart to me.'
'And you shall have my throne... for I am the King.'
'Will you?'
'Come closer!'
'Let me make you happy!'
'Oh no!' exclaimed the King.
'It is the Queen!'
