Thread: The Power Of Art - Bernini

I'm hoping that someone out there saw the Bernini episode of The Power of Art (BBC). During the final sequence, while the narator was discussing the Ecstacy of Saint Theresa, there was the most beautfil operatic tune? Please, please, please can someone identify it for me? I'd be forever grateful.

Sorry about bumping this old thread up, but I thought it would be beneficial to answer this since it ranks high on Google search.

The music in question is Vivaldi's Introduzione al Miserere "Filiae Maestae Jerusalem" in c minor, RV 638: II. Sileant Zephyri

Why does this have 1000 views and only two replies?

Because nobody knew who Bernini was and nobody recognized the musical piece in question.

Because frankly I don't give a damn about threads that don't have a direct link.
This was covered before.
