Friedrich Adolf Ferdinand, Freiherr von Flotow (27 April 1812 – 24 January … Read Full Bio ↴Friedrich Adolf Ferdinand, Freiherr von Flotow (27 April 1812 – 24 January 1883) was a German composer. He is chiefly remembered for his opera Martha, which was popular in the 19th century.
Flotow was born in Teutendorf, in Mecklenburg, into an aristocratic family. He studied at the Conservatoire de Paris and came under the influence of Daniel Auber, Gioachino Rossini, Giacomo Meyerbeer, Gaetano Donizetti, Fromental Halévy, and later Charles Gounod and Jacques Offenbach. These influences are reflected in his operas, where a distinctive French opéra comique flavour exists.
He completed his first opera in 1835, Pierre et Cathérine, but his breakthrough came with Le naufrage de la Méduse (1839), based on the wreck of the warship Méduse. The three-act romantic opera Alessandro Stradella of 1844 is recognized as one of Flotow's finer works. Martha was first staged in Vienna at the Theater am Kärntnertor on 25 November 1847.
Between 1856 and 1863 Flotow served as Intendant of the court theatre at Schwerin. He spent his last years in Paris and Vienna and had the satisfaction of seeing his operas mounted as far away as Saint Petersburg and Turin. He died in Darmstadt at the age of 70.

M'apparì tutto amore
Il mio sguardo l'incontro
Bella sì che il mio cor
Ansioso a lei volò
Mi ferì, m'invaghì
Quell'angelica beltà
Sculta in cor dall'amore
Cancellarsi non potrà
Il pensier di poter palpitare con lei d'amore
Può sopire il martire
Che m'affanna, e strazia il cor
E strazia il cor
M'appari tutto amore
Il mio sguardo l'incontro
Bella sì che il mio core
Ansioso a lei volò
Marta, Marta, tu sparisti
E il mio cor col tuo n'andò
E tu la pace mi rapisti
Di dolor io morirò
O di dolor morrò
Ah, sì, morrò
poetic, not literal translation:
She appeared to me, purest of love.
I discovered with my eyes this vision of delight.
Lovely was she, that my hungry heart,
In a snap, to her did fly;
I was hurt, I was charmed
By that beauty from above.
Love is etched in my heart,
And cannot now be erased.
The mere thought that our hearts
With sweet love might beat as one
Is enough to forget all the sorrow
That fills my heart.
She appeared to me, purest of love.
I discovered with my eyes this vision of delight.
Lovely was she, that my hungry heart,
In a snap to her did fly.
Marta, Marta, you have left me,
And my heart along with yours has vanished away!
You've taken away my peace,
I will surely die of pain.

M'appari tutt' amor
Il mio sguardo l'incontró
Bella si che il mio cor
Ansioso a lei voló
Mi feri, mi rapi
Quell'angelica belta
Sculta in cor dall'amor
Cancellarsi non potra
Il pesier di poter
Palpitar con lei d'amor
Puó soprir ji martir
Che m'affanna e strazia il cor!
Marta. Marta, tu sparisti
E ji mio cor con tuo ne andó!
Tu la pace mi rapisti
Di dolor jo moriró ah!
Di dolor morró, al, morró!
Beka Davitadze
M'appari tutt' amor
Il mio sguardo l'incontrò
Bella si che il mio cor
Ansioso a lei volò
Mi feri, mi rapi
Quell'angelica belta
Sculta in cor dall'amor
Cancellarsi non potra
Il pesier di poter
Palpitar con lei d'amor
Può soprir ji martir
Che m'affanna e strazia il cor!
E strazia il cor!
M'appari tutt'amor
Il mio sguardo l'incontrò
Bella si che il mio cor
Ansioso a lei volo
Marta, Marta, tu sparisti
E ji mio cor con tuo ne andò!
Tu la pace mi rapisti
Di dolor jo morirò ah!
Di dolor morrò, si, morrò!
Samuel Botero
M'appari tutto amor
Il mio sguardo l'incontrò
Bella si che il mio cor
Ansioso a lei volò
Mi ferì, mi invaghì
Quell'angelica beltà
Sculta in cor dall'amor
Cancellarsi non potrà
Il pensier di poter
Palpitar con lei d'amor
Può sopir il martir
Che m'affanna
E strazia il cor
E strazia il cor
M'appari tutto amor
Il mio sguardo l'incontrò
Bella si che il mio cor
Ansioso a lei volò
Martha, Martha, tu sparisti
E il mio cor col tuo n'andò
Tu la pace mi rapisti
Di dolor io morirò, ah
Di dolor morrò, si, morrò

This was one of President Lincon's favorite songs, fitting that it was performed in Lincoln Center. Bravissimo

Who can sing like him especially the last phrase? technically very strong, don't know who can come close.

No one can, and Never will, like there will never be another Einstein.
