One of Vivaldi's most famous arias, "Agitata da due venti" from "Griselda" is featuring Serbian mezzo-soprano Dragana Popović as the soloist, with members of New Trinity Baroque Katarina Djordjević and Ivana Zavišić (baroque violins), Ana Torbica (baroque viola), Srdjan Sretenović (baroque cello), Vojislav Despotović (baroque contrabass), Darko Karajić (chitarrone) and Predrag Gosta (harpsichord and direction).

LYRICS:
Agitata da due venti,
freme l'onda in mar turbato
e 'l nocchiero spaventato
già s'aspetta a naufragar.

Dal dovere da l'amore
combattuto questo core
non resiste e par che ceda
e incominci a desperar.

Agitata da due venti...

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Shaken by two winds,
the wave quivers in troubled sea
and the frightened steersman
already expects to be wrecked.

Between duty and love
is fighting my heart,
it doesn't resist and seems to give in
and begins to desperate.

Shaken by two winds...
