María Cristina Kiehr, soprano Concerto Soave The strophes are set in a very common manner: the continuo only repeats a descending major tetrachord while the voice constantly improvises a melody. Unlike laments set similarly but over the minor tetrachord, the movement of a descent in major produces a pleasurable affect, and its repetition creates an open-ended loop that could last indefinitely and prolong the pleasure. The refrain of the Spiritual cantata, on the other hand, is musically contrasting, written in a free, recitative style. It is more disturbing, as suggested by the narrative content and the rhetoric of the question asked (Do you not yet feel love?). And although the fourth part of the cantata brings about a promise (And you will understand love), the music stays the same: the dark-colored descending melody concludes the refrain and the entire piece. Ferarri's cantata is internally conflicted, rhetorically speaking: it contains an expression of pleasure in the strophes against the musical and lyrical representation of pain in the refrain, and this juxtaposition of radically different emotions becomes reiterated throughout the text (Do you recognize not suffering, Do you not yet feel love ... To live without love, without pain?).— Ljubica Ilic, Music and the Modern Condition: Investigating the Boundaries, 2016
