From the Opera Cavalleria Rusticana. Composed by Pietro Mascagni. Arranged by Jos van de Braak. Baton Music vocal series. From the Opera Cavalleria Rusticana. Full score. Duration 8:30. Baton Music #BM760-SCORE. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM760-SCORE).

Pietro Mascagni's most successful opera 'Cavalleria Rusticana' is a tempestuous drama of adultery and revenge set in a remote Italian village. Its earthy passions, bold confrontational scenes and richly melodic score set a fashion for so-called 'verismo' opera that would endure for more than a decade. The 'Coro d'introducione' is sung at the beginning of the opera: it is on Easter morning, and music almost makes us 'see' the light that filters through the windows, and the mood of joyful simplicity of the villagers. Then the male and female voices alternate to sing the beauty of spring, its scents and colors, and love that instills in the hearts: rural scenes of a rural society dedicated to work in the fields.
