Cavalleria Rusticana Opera Tickets

Enjoy a night of opera with Cavalleria Rusticana tickets. Cavalleria Rusticana is a one-act opera written by Pietro Mascagni in 1889 and based on the play by Giovanni Verga. The piece is widely recognized as a quintessential example of the post-Romantic tradition. The plot of the opera follows the misadventures of two pairs of lovers as they engage in a series of betrayals, affairs and acts of revenge. Mascagni wrote Cavalleria Rusticana in response to a competition for young composers who had not had an opera performed. The opera premiered in 1890 at Rome’s Teatro Costanzi, to an audience made up of some of Italy’s most notable critics. The debut performance received a standing ovation, winning Mascagni first place in the competition.

Mascagni wrote the opera in a hurried fashion and submitted it just in time for his entry to be accepted. Out of the 100 other submissions, Cavalleria Rusticana was chosen as one of three final works that would be performed in Rome. Cavalleria Rusticana quickly spread to the rest of the world and remains one of Mascagni’s best-known operas.
