Amore nihil mollius nihil violentius translates roughly to love, nothing is gentler, nothing is wilder. I believe that all songs are actually about love; this particular one is perhaps more obvious about this than most. Although it is meant to show off the voice in various ways, it should not in the least be perceived as an étude. The dramatic shape of the song is the most important aspect here, and I hope that the singers will enjoy creating this drama. Amore nihil mollius nihil violentius is structured in three short, contrasting sections which flow into one another. The opening focuses simply on the word amore. It is luxurious, sighing, and slightly lamenting in mood. The second section is somewhat faster and lighter, as it ruminates on the gentler qualities of love; as well as gentle, mollius means soft, supple and tender. The fastest and most dramatic section of the piece is amore nihil violentius. Here the singers will have a chance to show off their more bravura side.
Amore nihil mollius nihil violentius pourrait se traduire de façon générale par «aimer, rien n’est plus doux, rien n’est plus violent». Je crois que toutes les mélodies traitent d’une façon ou d’une autre de l’amour ; celle-ci le fait peut-être d’une façon un peu plus évidente. Même si l’oeuvre a pour dessein de mettre en valeur la voix de plusieurs façons, elle ne devrait pas pour autant être considérée comme une étude. La courbe dramatique du chant est l’aspect le plus important ici et j’espère que les chanteurs apprécieront de pouvoir participer à la création de ce drame. Amore nihil mollius nihil violentius est composée de trois courtes sections contrastantes liées l’une à l’autre. L’ouverture met tout simplement en lumière le mot amore. L’atmosphère en est une de somptuosité, de soupir et de légère lamentation. La deuxième section est d’une certaine façon plus rapide et légère et retourne sous plusieurs angles les qualités les plus douces de l’amour ; d’ailleurs, en plus d’évoquer la douceur, mollius sous-entend la souplesse et la tendresse. La section la plus rapide et la plus dramatique de la pièce est amore nihil violentius qui offre aux chanteurs la possibilité de démontrer leur bravoure.
