‘Non più di fiori’ – LA CLEMENZA DI TITO Mozart – Bergen National Opera

Vitellia’s lust for power has led her to attempt to kill the emperor, and it is her suitor Sesto who is about to pay the price. So what should she do? Save her friend’s life and give up the throne? The Norwegian soprano Beate Mordal sings ’Non più di fiori’, a sublime aria that reveals the hitherto unsuspected sensitivity of an ambitious and jealous woman plagued by guilt.
