Rustic Chivalry

Approved

Dramatic and emotional at the same time, rich in melodic inventions and daring harmonies, with which the author skilfully evokes the cheerfulness of a Sicilian village where love passions boil like wine, and the actions of the characters are dictated by strict social norms. The powerful music, dynamic and dramatic plot that grew out of the hot Sicilian temperament tells about love and jealousy, infidelity, longing, hypocrisy and fatal revenge. 

 The first realist opera, to which even the aged Verdi gave full credit, still delights the audience 130 years after its premiere. What's more, several sections, such as the famous intermezzo between scenes nine and ten, have achieved iconic status in popular culture—films like Raging Bull and The Godfather 3 used music from Cavalleria liberally. The opera's popularity is evidenced by the fact that at the time of the composer's death in 1945, it had already been performed 14 thousand times in Italy alone. Librettists Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti and Guido Menasci took as a basis the novel of the same name by Giovanni Verga. It was with Cavalleria that Pietro Mascagni introduced musical and stage verism to the world. Although Mascagni wrote an even greater number of opera works, he was unable to surpass the success of his debut. Friend Fritz (1891), Iris (1898), Maske (1901), Isabeau (1911) only partially,

English

Istovremeno dramatična i emotivna, bogata melodijskim invencijama i smjelim harmonijama kojima autor vješto dočarava vedrinu sicilijanskog sela u kojem ljubavne strasti vriju kao vino, a postupke likova diktiraju stroge društvene norme. Moćna glazba, dinamičan i dramatičan zaplet izrastao iz vrelog sicilijanskog temperamenta govori o ljubavi i ljubomori, nevjeri, čežnji, licemjerju i fatalnoj osveti. 

 Prva veristička opera kojoj je i ostarjeli Verdi dao puno priznanje, oduševljava publiku i 130 godina nakon praizvedbe. Štoviše, više je dionica, poput čuvenog intermezza između devete i desete scene, postiglo kultni status u popularnoj kulturi - u filmovima poput Pobješnjeli bik i Kum 3 obilato je korištena glazba iz Cavallerije. Popularnosti opere svjedoči i podatak da je u vrijeme skladateljeve smrti 1945. godine samo u Italiji već bila izvedena 14 tisuća puta. Libretisti Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti i Guido Menasci kao osnovu su uzeli istoimeni roman Giovannija Verge. Pietro Mascagni upravo je s Cavallerijom svijetu predstavio glazbeno-scenski verizam. Iako je Mascagni napisao još oveći broj opernih djela, nije uspio nadmašiti uspjeh prvijenca. Prijatelj Fritz (1891), Iris (1898), Maske (1901), Isabeau (1911) samo djelomično, u ponekim odlomcima otkrivaju skladatelja sjajne Cavallerije.
