by Ruggero Leoncavallo (1857-1919)

Life and art are invariably intertwined, but seldom as closely as in the opera “Pagliacci” (Clowns).

Ruggero Leoncavallo’s opera about fatal jealousies in a traveling troupe of actors was based on a real-life story: a case encountered by Leoncavallo’s father, who was a police magistrate in Naples. The incident, concerning a middle-aged actor who murdered his unfaithful actress wife onstage during a performance,clearly inspired the story of the opera.

Opera composers don’t often write their own libretto, but it looks like this case lit a creative spark in Leoncavallo.

Maritime Concert Opera is a semi-professional regional opera company based in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada which brings in-concert performances of great operas to many communities in Nova Scotia. While we use professional soloists, our chorus and ethos are rooted firmly in our communities.

Beth Hagerman, Stephen Bell, Jason Davis, Andrew Tees, Josh Whelan, and the MCO Chorus.
