Three Tenors Milwaukee
Tim, Tommy, and Andrew met and became friends in 2013 when they shared the stage in
Skylight Music Theatre’s production of Les Misérables. Now, after eight years, all three appear
together in one incredible performance blending Broadway, opera, jazz and rock; with solos, duets
and trios packing some major vocal firepower, and Maggie Rebers at the piano, holding it all
together.

Dein ist mein ganzes Herz!				              Yours is my heart alone!
Wo du nicht bist, kann ich nicht sein.			   Where you aren’t, I cannot exist.
So, wie die Blume welkt,					               Just as a flower wilts
wenn sie nicht küsst der Sonnenschein!			   without the sun’s kisses!
Dein ist mein schönstes Lied,				           My loveliest song is yours,
weil es allein aus der Liebe erblüht.			    since it alone bloomed from love.
Sag mir noch einmal, mein einzig Lieb,			   Tell me once more, my only love,
O, sag noch einmal mir:					                Oh, tell me once more:
Ich hab dich lieb!						                    I have your love!

und betend dir zu Füssen sinken,				        and plead to sink at your feet,
dir, dir allein! Wie wunderbar				          yours, yours alone! How wonderful
ist dein leuchtendes Haar!					             is your shining hair!
Traumschön und sehnsuchtsbang				           Sweet dreams and the pains of desire
ist dein strahlender Blick.					            are in your radiant gaze.
Hör ich der Stimme Klang,				               Hearing the sound of your voice
ist es so wie Musik.					                   is just like music.
Dein ist mein ganzes Herz etc.				          Yours is my heart alone etc.

sti parole amare; pecchè me parle				        such bitter words; Why speak
e ‘o core me turmiente, Catarì?				          and torment my heart, Catarina?
Nun te scurdà ca t’aggio date ‘o core,			    Do not forget I gave you my heart,
Catarì, nun te scurdà!					                  Catarina do not forget!
Catarì, che vene a dicere					               Catarina, what do you mean by
stu parlà ca me dà spaseme?				              These words that stagger me?
Tu nun’nce pienze a stu dulore mio,			       You don’t think of the pain I feel,
tu nun’nce pienze, tu nun te ne cure.			     You don’t think, You don’t care.

tutt’è passato e nun ‘nce pienze cchiù!			   All is over, I’m in your thoughts no more!

NESSUN DORMA					NONE SHALL SLEEP
Nessun dorma! Tu pure, o, Principessa			  None shall sleep! Even you, O Princess
nella tua fredda stanza					              in your bleak room
Guardi le stelle che tremano				          gazing at the stars trembling
d’amore e di speranza!					               with love and hope!
Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me				      But my secret lies locked within me.
il nome mio nessun saprà					             No one will know my name!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo dirò				       No, no, on your lips I will pronounce it,
quando la luce splenderà!					            when the splendor of daylight comes!
Ed il mio bacio scioglierà il silenzio			 And my kiss that breaks the silence
che ti fa mia!						                      will makes you mine!
Dilegua, o notte, Tramontate, stelle			   Be gone, O night! Disperse, stars!
all’alba vincerò!						                   At dawn I will be victorious!
