Played by THE BRITISH NATIONAL OPERA COMPANY
Conducted by JOHN BARBIROLLI
Relayed from the Alhambra, Bradford
FOUR of the five people in Leoncavallo's one really successful Opera are strolling players, and the 6fth, who completes the cast, is a peasant. It is his love affair with Nedda, the Columbine of the troupe, which brings about the final tragedy. Canio, the leader of the players, her husband, discovering their intrigue, kills first his wife and then the lover, Silvio.
The first act tells of the arrival of the little troupe in the village, and in the second they act
* their play on a small stage before the villagers.
The little piece which they perform is in effect the same tale of jealousy and passion which is the plot of the whole work. 9.47 app. A Pianoforte Recital By ERNEST LUSH
