This solo is the introduction to the Act 1, Scene 4 duet from Rossini’s “Otello.” It is an exposed solo that features operatic lyricism and technical skill. The Desdemona & Emilia duet is a melancholy and beautiful passage where Emilia attempts to console a fearful Desdemona, and the solo sets the mood for the drama that follows.
The solo is increasingly appearing in orchestra auditions, and a wonderful platform to display your expressive and technical skills. It has been transposed to E-flat, from E, primarily for the band.
