Excerpts from Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice

Che fiero momento (Eurodice)
Questo asilo ameno e grato (Eurodice)
Dalla cetra tua (Amor)
Chiamo il mio ben cosi (Orfeo)
Addio, addio, o miei sospiri (Orfeo)
Deh placatevi con me (Orfeo)
Mille pene (Orfeo)
Che puro ciel (Orfeo)
Che farò senza Euridice
(Orfeo)
