To the love
‘An original way to make a declaration of love or to put the children to bed.’ (Le Monde)
Mozart's poignant declaration of love for love
VOI CHE SAPETE
The Marriage of Figaro
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
KV 492, 1786
Cherubin’s Ariette ‘Voi, che sapete’ from the famous Opera ‘The Marriage of Figaro’ is a melody created by Mozart entirely out of feeling and for the feeling itself. Cherubin sings of love, though not yet knowing what love is. So he asks emotionaly moved ‘You who know what love is, Ladies, see if I have it in my heart?’ Yes, it’s certainly love!
