Farinelli - Venti turbini - Lascia ch'io pianga
"Farinelli" (1994) Director: Gérard Corbiau Awards: Best Foreign Language Film (Golden Globes 1995) Nominated for Oscar in the same category ---------------------------------------- In this video appear the arias "Venti, turbini" and "Lascia ch'io pianga" from the opera "Rinaldo" written by Haendel. If you wonder why the people and Farinelli are so sad when he is singing "Lascia ch'io pianga", is because the translation is "Let me weep over my cruel fate, and that I long for freedom" (en castellano es "Déjame que llore mi triste suerte, y que añore la libertad")
