Description

The setting of Cavalleria Rusticana is in Sicily and revolves around the relationship between Santuzza and Turiddu. Before that act began, Turidu had seduced Santuzza but abandoned her for Lola, a former mistress now married to Alfio. It is a fertile ground for conflict. In revenge, Santuzza confesses all this to Alfio, who becomes enraged and finally kills Turiddu in a duel behind the church. To add to the pathos, all this happens on Easter Sunday.

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Cavalleria Rusticana; Italian for 'Rustic Chivalry') is an opera in one act by Pietro Mascagni to an Italian libretto by Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti and Guido Menasci, adapted from an 1880 short story of the same name and subsequent play by Giovanni Verga. Considered one of the classic verismo operas, it premiered on 17 May 1890 at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome. Since 1893, it has often been performed in a so-called Cav/Pag double-bill with Pagliacci by Ruggero Leoncavallo.
