 Brahms, Rinaldo, Op. 50
Rinaldo should also be viewed against the background of the aesthetic of opera that Brahms evolved during his frustrating search for a suitable operatic subject, a search extending from the late 1860s through the early 1880s.
Rinaldo's hallucinatory vision of the enchantress's realm is associated with orchestral colors dominated by the upper winds and at times supported by pizzicato strings.
Rinaldo, however, "misreads" the pedal tone as a C sharp, causing the music to shift from the prevailing D flat tonality to a languid F-sharp minor.

 Rinaldo - Handel
Rinaldo was a hit in 1710 because the Italian singing style was new and arresting in England; because Handel quarried previous operas for their best tunes (not just his own operas either); and because it boasted special effects and stage machinery whose description still makes the jaw drop.
Rinaldo is one of his favorite Handel roles – he has recorded it with Cecilia Bartoli for Decca – and these were his first Rinaldos in this country.
The part includes half a dozen arias in various emotional keys: Rinaldo is a happy lover, a wretched lover, a confident fighter, a despairing fighter by turns, and he sings a happy duet with Almirena and an angry one with Armida.

Rinaldo resolves to find Almirena, now a prisoner in Argante's palace, but he is intercepted by Armida, now in the guise of Almirena, whom he rejects.
In Armida's garden Rinaldo is prevented from killing the sorceress, from whose murderous intentions he has just saved Almirena, by the intervention of the Furies.

Rinaldo, who saw Isolier fall, and thought that his life was reft, darted towards the horse, and, with his fist gave him such a blow on the jaws that the blood tinged his mouth with vermilion.

Rinaldo, sore and faint, dragged himself toward a fountain which flowed near by, and, being parched with thirst, drank greedily and almost unconsciously of the water, which was sweet to the taste, but bitter to the heart.

Rinaldo was first produced at the Queen’s (later King’s) Theatre in the Haymarket on 24 February 1711.
The range of Rinaldo’s own passions is as strikingly portrayed, from the despair of his great lament ‘Cara sposa’ to the heroic virtuosity of ‘Venti, turbini, prestate’ (with violin and bassoon solos) and ‘Or la tromba’ (where the voice contends with the four trumpets).

Rinaldo and his brothers, for some slight offence to the imperious young prince, were forced to fly from Paris, and to take shelter in their castle of Montalban; for Charles had publicly said, if he could take them, he would hang them all.
Either Rinaldo foiled their efforts and sent them back, stripped of their armor and of their glory, or, after meeting and conferring with him, they came back and told the king they could not be his instruments for such a work.
Rinaldo thanked him, and said, "A good day I have hardly had since I was born." Then said the old man, "Signor Rinaldo, you must not despair, for God will make all things turn to the best." Rinaldo answered, "My trouble is too heavy for me to hope relief.

Armida is smitten with Rinaldo and takes on the form of Almirena to deceive Rinaldo, but he is not deceived.
Despite its historical context within the late 11th century battles between the Crusades and the Saracens, Handel's "Rinaldo", written in the early 18th century, is actually a fanciful tale of love, devotion and betrayal populated by kings and warriors, fair maidens and sorcerers.
Daniels is particularly convincing with the music that reflects his deep love for her, in particular, with Rinaldo's famous lament, "Cara sposa, amante cara, dove sei?".

Bluster as they will, there is no chance that their cause can prevail, and the opera ends with the happiest of choral reconciliations between Christians and pagans [listen -- CD3 track 18, 0:00-1:25].
There is little point in pretending that Rinaldo makes much dramatic sense or is any sort of commentary on the First Crusade, and it is frustrating that some of the more sensational effects occur in secco recitative.
But as an anthology of what Handel could offer to the connoisseurs of London the day after his twenty-sixth birthday, it is brim-ful of musical delights.

 Vivica Genaux: Reviews: Rinaldo CD
The original primo uomo role of Rinaldo is taken by a mezzo, Vivica Genaux, who draws a fine, slender line of tone, and sings the lovely ‘Cara sposa’ with real passion, and her next aria, the showpiece that ends the First Act, has some splendidly defined and incisive singing.”
“Vivica Genaux is highly convincing in the role of the Christian knight Rinaldo, with a broad spectrum of expression.
Her warm flowing mezzo-soprano is endowed with a velvety richness so expressive in languishing love duets and in moving arias of lament, and just as secure in the furious outbursts in her encounters with Armida.”
