Ian Bostridge - Love sounds th'alarm
The outstanding British tenor Ian Bostridge sings the air “Love sounds th'alarm” from Handel's Acis and Galatea.
Acis
Love sounds th'alarm,
And fear is a-flying!
When beauty's the prize,
What mortal fears dying?
In defence of my treasure,
I'd bleed at each vein;
Without her no pleasure,
For life is a pain.
Love sounds. . . da capo
