A bit more of Italian culture here in Cyprus!
Cavalleria rusticana is an opera in one act by Pietro Mascagni to an Italian libretto by Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti and Guido Menasci, adapted from a play and short story written by Giovanni Verga.
Cavalleria Rusticana (tr. Rustic Chivalry) is one of the fundamental works of Italian verismo. The story takes place in a Sicilian village around the end of the 19th century, during Easter. The main subjects of this musico-dramatic masterpiece are love, betrayal and honor.
