???? Teaser - Cavalleria Rusticana & Pagliacci

Cavalleria Rusticana and Pagliacci are the most famous jewels of the veristic musical movement which developed in Italy alongside Puccini's career. These two operas had, at their creation, such a success that it overshadowed the later works of Mascagni and Leoncavallo. Their brevity and similarity in dramaturgy have meant that they are almost always depicted together. We find there the oppressive omnipresence of the Catholic religion: the action of Cavalleria takes place on Easter day and that of Pagliacci, on the day of the Assumption.

The composers describe bloody miscellaneous events set in a rough rural world subject to the unleashing of passions. The violence occasioned by a Mediterranean code of honor leads inexorably to tragedy.

English

Cavalleria Rusticana et Pagliacci sont les fleurons les plus célèbres du mouvement musical vériste qui se développa en Italie parallèlement à la carrière de Puccini. Ces deux opéras ont eu, à leur création, un tel succès qu’il occulta les ouvrages ultérieurs de Mascagni et Leoncavallo. Leur brièveté et la similitude de leur dramaturgie ont fait qu’ils sont presque toujours représentés ensemble. On y retrouve l’omniprésence oppressante de la religion catholique : l’action de Cavalleria se déroule le jour de Pâques et celle de Pagliacci, le jour de l’Assomption.

Les compositeurs nous décrivent des faits divers sanglants ayant pour cadre un monde rural fruste soumis au déchaînement des passions. La violence occasionnée par un code de l’honneur méditerranéen aboutit inexorablement à la tragédie.
