I don't know about you, but I can never get enough of Luca Pisaroni's smooth warm bass-baritone voice. Here are two movements from Rossini's Stabat Mater. This was recorded in concert last year with the Cleveland Orchestra and Chorus, led by Franz Welser-Möst.

IV. Aria (Bass)
| |
Pro peccatis suae gentis
|
For the sins of His people
|
vidit Jesum in tormentis
|
she saw Jesus in torment
|
et flagellis subditum!
|
and subjected to the scourge.
|
Vidit suum dulcem Natum
|
She saw her sweet Son
|
moriendo desolatum,
|
dying, forsaken,
|
dum emisit spiritum.
|
while He gave up His spirit.
|
V. Chorus & Recitative (Bass)
| |
Eia, Mater, fons amoris,
|
O Mother, fountain of love,
|
me sentire vim doloris
|
make me feel the power of sorrow,
|
fac ut tecum lugeam.
|
that I may grieve with you.
|
Fac ut ardeat cor meum
|
Grant that my heart may burn
|
in amando Christum Deum
|
in the love of the Lord Christ
|
ut sibi complaceam.
|
that I may greatly please Him.
