Synopsis
Excerpt from The Great Operas: Cavalleria Rusticana by Mascagni, And, Pagliacci by Leoncavallo
Turiddu, a handsome young peasant, is in love with Lola, a fair village maiden, who returns his affection. He enlists as a soldier, and on his return from the war discovers that his betrothed has proved faithless and married Alfio, a carrier. To drown his grief, he seeks another love, and his choice falls on Santuzza, who becomes passionately attached to him. But the fickle Lola very soon tires of Alfio; and, chagrined at the happiness of her former lover with his new sweetheart, she is mad with jealousy, and endeavours to win him back to her side. This she has already succeeded in doing when the play begins. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
