Miami Lyric Opera Presents CAVALLERIA RUSTICANA And SUOR ANGELICA At SMDCAC

Cavalleria Rusticana. Mascagni's most loved opera that evolves in a domestic drama in a Sicilian village of love, betrayal, jealousy and death. Great melodies and one of the most beautiful Intermezzo (musical intermission) ever written.

A young man Turiddu is in love with his friend's wife Lola before departing for the army. At his return he promises to marry Santuzza a villager girl pregnant by Turiddu while he still secretly sees Lola while her husband Alfio is out of town for work. Santuzza offended by the betrayal encounters Lola's husband to tell him all about Turiddu and his wife. That bring to revenge, honor recovery and drama.

Suor Angelica. One of Puccini's Tryptic that includes Il Tabarro and Gianni Schicchi is a true gem of musical drama of a young woman later called Suor Angelica (Sister Angelica) a daughter of a noble Florentine family, has spent the last seven years in the seclusion of a convent as punishment for her sin. Having become an expert at crafting herbal remedies, her true, hidden desire is to hear from her family once again, and to gather news of her illegitimate son whom she has not seen since his birth and her banishment.

She is being stripped of her wealth and inheritance rights forced by her aunt The Principessa (The princess) Finally dies by poisoning herself with the vision of her son walking to her before dying while a celestial chorus of angels is heard.
