Mascagni: Cavalleria Rusticana/Leoncavallo: Pagliacci [Blu-ray]

Overview

This stage opus by Giancarlo del Monaco combines two separate and ostensibly unrelated operas - Pietro Mascagni's +Cavalleria rusticana and Ruggero Leoncavallo's +Pagliacci - into a single production, by virtue of their shared verismo style. Jesús López Cobos directs for the stage; Violeta Urmana, Dragana Jugovic and Marco di Felice co-star in the +Cavalleria portion, while Vladimir Galouzine, María Bayo and Carlo Guelfi co-star in the +Pagliacci segments. The Chorus and Orchestra of the Teatro Real, under the leadership of musical director Jésus López Cobos, provides musical accompaniment.
