Opera Explained series: An Introduction to Mascagni Cavalleria rusticana. Written by Thomson Smillie. Narrated by David Timson. This series introduces, in words and music, the plot and background of major operas. Cavalleria rusticana is the short opera that has all the elements of a grand opera compressed into a single highly dramatic time span. The story of love, lust, blood-feud and betrayal played out against the pageantry of the Easter celebrations in a Sicilian village.
