Italian opera fit for a bucket list

The Dutch National Opera presents one of the most famous double bills in the history of opera, Pietro Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana (Rustic Chivalry) and Ruggero Leoncavallo’s Pagliacci (Clowns). In fact, these two operas are so commonly shown together that they’re often referred to as simply “Cav and Pag”.

Filled to the brim with drama, love, infidelity, betrayal, jealousy and murder, these two culminations of Italian opera feature it all. This is a must-see, even for people who think they don't like opera!
