Cavalleria Rusticana - James Levine - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Pietro Mascagni (1863-1945) was an Italian composer primarily known for his operas. His masterpiece, which established forever his name as one of the most important Verismo composers, was Cavalleria Rusticana (1890). Set in a village in Sicilia it is based on the novel by Giovanni Verga. The one act opera took the musical world by storm and became an instant classic of the repertoire.

This new recording presents a line of excellent young soloists: tenor Piero Giuliacci (winner of the “Mascagni d’Oro 2013” and “Pavarotti d’Oro 2017”), Alessandra di Giorgio, Domenico Balzani, Irina Dolzhenko, and Giorgio Teodoro. The splendid Berliner Symphoniker is conducted by the young and promising Filippo Arlia, of Calabrian soil.
