Si mostri a chi l'adora...Si, scordar saprò l'infido
      from Act II, Scene II of the Italian opera, Un Giorno di Regno by Giuseppe Verdi
      Libretto : Felice Romani

• Role : Marchesa del Poggio, the Baron's niece and a widow
• Voice Part : soprano   Fach : dramatic mezzo
• Setting : a terrance facing Baron Kelbar's gardens
• Range : Has not been entered yet.
• Synopsis : The Marchesa knows that the supposed king of Poland is really Belfiore, her lover. She attempts to make him reveal himself by threatening to marry Count Ivrea. When she tells the "king" this in front of the Baron and others, he asks what she would do about Belfiore (i.e. himself). After all, the "king" points out, Belfiore is sure to try to stop the marriage somehow. The Marchesa then asks him why Belfiore hasn't shown up yet and launches in the first part of her aria where she states that she will forgive Belfiore for not showing up sooner but only if he apologizes enough. He doesn't respond to this though and so when the trumpets sound announcing the entrance of Count Ivrea, she goes right into a more abrasive cabaletta in which she conveys that this is Belfiore's last chance to come out in the open and claim her.
