I'm now 74. I heard this for the first time aged 10 on the radio. I clearly remember asking my parents what it was. I said it made me feel sad but I wanted a record because it was so beautiful. The next day father bought the 78 rpm record. It was played until it was worn out.
@@angelagerace8203 The most beautiful music I've ever heard and the video is well matched with it I'm 75 the baby on my profile photo I am pleased to see that all ages agree with classical music
I have played this piece many times as Army Musician and had it played at my wife's Funeral this year in May 23. I don't think it's sad but a very moving piece for everyone!
Mascagni believed this to be his masterpiece and I agree. Played to an empty stage after the drama has unfolded in a way only Italian opera can portray. Wonderful.
I heard that he wrote it for a contest. And initially he threw the papers with notes in the garbage because he believed it is no good. But his wife picked it up and encouraged him to continue
Mascagni wrote many other pieces of music, but while other famous composers were noted for writing several well known pieces each, this intermezzo became Mascagni's only 'known' work. And everything else he wrote sank into relative obscurity. But if you're only going to be known for one piece of music, this surely has to be it.
Im 39, I was 4 years old when I really started to appreciate music in all forms. Opera/Classical music always hits deep, down to the soul. Brings out joy, sorrow, love, hate.
Oooo yes, I discovered it many years ago and it is on my classics CD. While I was listening this music, tears were rolling down my face, I felt like the gates of heaven were opening. This music so elevates the soul, you feel it with every cell of your being. Greetings from Croatia❤
Yo la descubrí hace mas de 20 años en una novela mexicana escrita por Ernesto Alonso productor Mex; con la Bellisima argentina Cristhian Bach y el mexicano Zurita. Una novela hermosa. Saludos desde Mexico. Gracias Pietro Mascagni y a la bella Italia ❤
Suonai questo pezzo 45 anni fa in chiesa con la Banda del mio paese, con tante di quelle persone che ora non ci sono più’. Ora quando la ascolto vedo lo scorrere della vita davanti a me e amo come non mai la vita è questa musica che la rappresenta in tutto e per tutto. Grazie Maestro Nizzolini per averci unito in quella musica per sempre.
One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever. I had this played at my husband's funeral in October 2020. The love of my life who has left the hugest void ever
I have listened to this music Hundreds of times, and i still get goose bumps and im moved every time. Wonderful piece of music. There are not many things in this world that can make you feel like that, but to me this is rare.
This music was featured at the end of the 3rd Godfather movie, and the imagery that was displayed during the music was so absolutely overwhelming that I can't listen to it without getting emotional EVERY single time. When I watch a marathon of the Godfather and I get to the very end, I always rewind that ending song 4 times at least before I can let it pass by, the beauty of the moment is just too much. 💜💜
I'd like this played at the end of the first half of Bagi, The Return of the Monster with Ryo crying over everything which he thinks is his fault. How he fears that even after giving Bagi the shot to cure her feral state, he thinks he still killed her. He doesn't notice that the vaccine worked and saved Bagi. And with Skunk (Astro Boy) about to drop an unpinned grenade, Ryo wants to take responsibility for everything and wants to bid a tear-stained farewell to Bagi The sad last words of the first half: Ryo:"It no longer matters... I've abandoned everything and everyone... I cut school. I couldn't save them, Bagi, or my mother... I don't wanna add another page to my dark history any longer... I don't think it's a dud... I'll never hear Bagi's voice again, but the least I can do for her is take responsibility... (doesn't realize Bagi's ears are twitching, as is her tail) *sniff tears* Bagi, my mother and I deserve an "I told you so" for everything. Wherever you are, whatever better place you've gone to with your friends from that lab... I'll never make it there... *sob* *sob* This is goodbye for good when that grenade hits the ground. (first words for Bagi by proxy) We, *sob* as I would want you and not me to say, will always be friends. (camera shows Bagi's POV racing to save Ryo before the grenade goes off) We will always be (with seconds before Skunk's unpinned grenade leaves his fingertips, Ryo doesn't realize he's being scooped up to be carried away from the blast) TOGETHER!"
Yet there is so much beauty in it as well. My mother played violin when she was younger (private lessons in the 920s--[edit, er….1920s]). This was her favorite piece. Oh, yes…. She was named for Adam’s Nellie Melba. [edit: oops! AUSTRALIA’s!!]

THANK YOU, ROMI for posting....I had this played at the funeral home for my beloved husband, who passed away last October 8 2021 from acute hypoxic lung failure due to covid. He was a war hero. An honorable, yet humble, man. A recipient of a silver star, 2 bronze stars, 2 purple hearts during the Vietnam war. A member of the elite 5th Group Special Forces Airborne (green berets) who later came home, went to college and then on to medical school. My husband, Michael, was still practicing as an ER doctor and teaching resident doctors in southwest Florida, when he very tragically died. He had selflessly given his whole life, in service to his country and to others. My heart is truly broken. I shall love you always...Rest in Peace my precious, beautiful darling man, until we are together again.
I was 15 in hospital the kind surgeon used to visit the ward at night and play us music this piece has stayed with me all these years I am now 80 and it still brings tears to my eyes cheers mo
I first heard this beautiful piece of music in the anime Rurouni Kenshin when I was a teen. It plays when Kenshin says goodbye to Kaoru in the field of fireflies. To this day, it's still my favorite anime and this is one of my favorite pieces of music ever.
I also first heard it in Rurouni Kenshin. I always tried to find it as a kid. And heard it once on the radio on the classical station but didn't get the name and today I have finally found it!!
Wow, tingling, goosebumps and tears. The back drop fits it perfectly. My father used to whistle this when I was about 8 years old. Guaranteed to be at my funeral, I am only 78 😁😁 ,a few years to go yet. Enjoy everyone.
I was born while this song was playing and have to hold back tears every time I hear it. Reading how many people were send off to it truly makes me realise that this is the sound of life.
Opera struggente e straziante,di una sensibilità e dolcezza infinita. Impossibile restare indifferenti. Melodia che tocca le corde giuste dell'anima in grado di disarmare qualsiasi essere vivente intenzionato a compiere gesti o comportamenti maldestri. Grazie,Sommo Mascagni. L'umanità le sarà grata per l'eternità... e con lei,vivrà!
Io sono grato al grande Mascagni, mi ricorda l'Intermezzo la presenza della bellezza e dell'amore della speranza anche nei momenti di massimo dolore. La musica è terapia per anima corpo e mente. E l'Intermezzo è sempre un caposaldo delle mie cure necessarie
@@leonardocasalini9261 E' così ....come corista amatoriale ,ho cantato Cavalleria Rusticana 3 volte ....ogni volta dovevo stare ben concentrato su quello che dovevo fare ,perchè era molto facile emozionarsi .
Impossível não se emocionar...sou filha de um homem que lutou muito na vida, mas que desde sempre gostou de ler e ouvir músicas clássicas... Aprendi tanto com esse pai amor... que infelizmente faleceu. Deixou um tremendo legado
Impossível não se emocionar... Sou professora estadual e lamento por imenso por meus moleques não conheçam ou quiçá tenham algum tipo de interesse para conhecer. Eu tentei uma vez, não obtive aceitação. C'est lá vie
And to think that Mascagni only wrote the intermezzo as an afterthought to join the two acts of his new and unperformed opera and enter it into a competition for one-act operas - which he won !! It is truly one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music ever written.
35 years years ago I was playing this at full volume. My mother came upstairs and sat down & loved it. She said “please play this at my funeral.. . It makes more sense now... I will
We played this over my father's photo slideshow at his funeral almost three weeks ago, always loved this piece but now even more, chi vediamo dopo Papa ❤️🇮🇹
È sempre un emozione, mi si forma un groppo in gola e non riesco a trattenere le lacrime, mi passa la vita davanti! Come si può scrivere una musica simile, non so , sembra più opera di Dio che dell uomo.
Dimentichiamo di essere scintille divine ...Ma... a volte qualcuno si riconnette con l'Energia Universale. Allora possono nascere queste meravigliose opere, che riaccendono altre anime. Un abbraccio 🤗
J'ai eu tellement d émotions, des frissons, et des larmes . Je ne connaissais pas ce passage, et je vais noter le titre pour le réécouter. Merci à ceux qui l ont interprétés et à la personne qui l a mis en ligne
I first heard this in the movie, “Raging Bull.” It was used during a slow motion fighting scene. Quite a beautiful, peaceful piece to be used for such a brutal sport. I had to go to the credits to find the name of the music. Since then, this has become one of my favorites. So moving.
I am not normally a fan of opera, but hearing this for the first time I bawled. And I still tear up, this is such a masterful and heartfelt song. God bless the person who wrote it and ensured it would be heard.~
This is what Italian soul sounds when it sings! No matter how many years go by, this musical piece will always bring tears to whoever listens to it. This is the sound of Eternity!
Che musica fantastica, quando l'ascolto mi vengono in mente le praterie, i vigneti, gli alberi fioriti in primavera, proprio come le immagini che avete associato nel video.
Well here I am 3 years later, I was playing this piece on the piano, googled to make sure I was doing it right and found all these amazing comments! Improved my day! Greetings from South Africa to all you lovely people...you never know, maybe the world really will "live as one" as the song tells us
Truly a spectacular piece of music. I'm so proud to be Italian. Yes, it touches the eye, ear and spirit as someone wrote so beautifully in Italian. Magnifico.
Это Божественная музыка. Я из Дагестана,из маленького города Дербент. Эту музыку почувствует тот,кто хоть раз оставался с Собой. Торжествует дух Бога. Браво! До слез!
è mai possibile che la "Nostra Musica" meravigliosa , apprezzata nel mondo intero, abbia commenti di apprezzamento quasi unicamente da persone straniere!!! dov'è finito l'orgoglio di essere nati nel Paese di Verdi, Puccini, Donizetti, Bellini, Mascagni e chi più ne ha ne metta????? ricordiamo sempre che siamo eredi di una cultura musicale strepitosa e unica al mondo! Grazie.

@@PreservationEnthusiast The fantastic thing about art is its power to connect our experiences with the rest of the world. In the same way that an artwork is always, in some way, a reflection of the artist, so too our individual reactions to it are also a reflection of ourselves. Even if this piece doesn't resonate with you in the way it does for some, and I could never really know what it would mean for you, I hope you find or have found art which moves you in the way this music moves me. Everyone deserves that experience.
@@charlesmcg Sure theres plenty of music I like across classical, rock and electronic genres. You gave your definition of art, but that's not the only one. Another take on it, would be a piece of work that provokes reactions or emotions. It provoked a reaction in me that it was pretentious shite. I don't like the way the music continually sweeps up in pitch in a cheap attempt to stir emotion like a sound track to an old film. Rather than gushing about the music, I have analysed it and made a relevant comment. So it has provoked a reaction in me, albeit not a positive one. If everyone had the same reaction, what a boring world it would be! Delighted to chat with you on You Tube comments.
My mom always wanted us to be cultured and know music, plays, opera, paintings, sculptures etc. I had forgotten all about this work until I was rewatching the anime series Rurouni Kenshin and got to episode 31. They were using this song in the most touching scene and I started to cry. This music welled my soul as a child and to hear it and recognize it and to remember those youthful feelings… well it was indescribable. I’m so glad someone posted this to UA-cam. And I’m so thankful that my mother understood the importance of keeping these masterpieces alive within our hearts.
Maybe it's just from seeing it in the Godfather, but this piece always evokes a feeling of seeing something from a fuller perspective. Something that wasn't always clear while it was going on, that was full of heartbreak, mistakes, and also its pleasures. What wasn't so obvious until now was its incredible beauty, and the piece evokes regret or joy to the extent that we were able to appreciate that while it was going on.
bella l' aria . Bella la fotografia . tutto mi ha portato nel paradiso divino e mi ha riempito di Spirito Santo . Solo la musica e la bellezza elevano fino a Dio luce e armonia .
If I understand some of the previous comments in Italian, I would like to state that I have never been to Italy, though it is one of my life's dreams, not only to visit its modern cities, but more importantly, the countryside. When I listen to this beautiful music, I travel there in my imagination. Such powerful, but sublime music almost brings me to tears. Bravo!!!
The intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana Is marvelous ! I am proud to have been born in the city of Mascagni and that is LIVORNO ♥️🇮🇹,which also gave birth to A.Modigliani and G.Fattori !
@@paolorossi9180 grazie 👍, LIVORNO è una città importante e bella che merita quindi di essere ben visitata, quanto meno x vedere il suo meraviglioso lungomare (con la Terrazza Mascagni, realmente unica) tra i più estesi e affascinanti d'EUROPA, ma anche il suggestivo( soprattutto by night) quartiere di Venezia ecc.

Wow did not know he cane from Livorno was in livorno each summer because my dads geandfather had a house in a small village Montemarchello not far from Livorno.
Siendo jóvenes, mi padre le pidió a mi madre que en su funeral se escuchara el intermedio de Cavalleria rusticana y quiso el azar que el día de mi bautizo el organista tocase esta pieza... Lo que iba a ser muerte se convirtió en vida
Hi Britt, it's one of the very few operatic arias that I'm familiar with. I tried to visualize it through images of the region of Tuscany in central Italy. Thank you for watching. . . Romi

Same!! It’s such a beautiful piece. Gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. ❤
Wow, tingling, goosebumps and tears. The back drop fits it perfectly.
My father used to whistle this when I was about 8 years old.
Guaranteed to be at my funeral, I am only 78 😁😁 ,a few years to go yet.
Enjoy everyone.
i'm 85 and hope I can have this played at my final service. Wha a send off.
No words can describe how this makes me feel.
Il mio cuore si spezza per te Italia, ti amo così tanto.
Un ungherese.
gábor kovács Ed il mio si spezza per la bella e grande Ungheria, culla d'Europa, in mani sbagliate.
Stiamo morendo...dentro
Il tuo commento mi ha commosso. Grazie.
Un italiano
L'Italia è bella, grande cuore e arte per sempre
La nostra distruzione va di pari passo con questa immigrazione, con l'euro, con gli italiani contro altri italiani e contro le proprie radici...
This IS the most incredibly wonderful piece in ltalian music for ever more!!!😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was born while this song was playing and have to hold back tears every time I hear it. Reading how many people were send off to it truly makes me realise that this is the sound of life.
Opera struggente e straziante,di una sensibilità e dolcezza infinita. Impossibile restare indifferenti.
Melodia che tocca le corde giuste dell'anima in grado di disarmare qualsiasi essere vivente intenzionato a compiere gesti o comportamenti maldestri.
Grazie,Sommo Mascagni.
L'umanità le sarà grata per l'eternità...
e con lei,vivrà!
Io sono grato al grande Mascagni, mi ricorda l'Intermezzo la presenza della bellezza e dell'amore della speranza anche nei momenti di massimo dolore.
La musica è terapia per anima corpo e mente.
E l'Intermezzo è sempre un caposaldo delle mie cure necessarie
@@leonardocasalini9261 E' così ....come corista amatoriale ,ho cantato Cavalleria Rusticana 3 volte ....ogni volta dovevo stare ben concentrato su quello che dovevo fare ,perchè era molto facile emozionarsi .
Я из России. Благодарю всех вас за это чудо!С уважением.
This music was made in heaven! Thank you Maestro for this masterpiece! 🎼🎶♩👏👍
Unica irripetibile! Un meraviglia che lascia senza fiato e conlelacrime agli occhi!!!
Yes.
This Is Puccini
@@saveriocigna979
Certainly not ! This is Mascagni for sure !
Impossível não se emocionar...sou filha de um homem que lutou muito na vida, mas que desde sempre gostou de ler e ouvir músicas clássicas... Aprendi tanto com esse pai amor... que infelizmente faleceu. Deixou um tremendo legado
Impossível não se emocionar... Sou professora estadual e lamento por imenso por meus moleques não conheçam ou quiçá tenham algum tipo de interesse para conhecer. Eu tentei uma vez, não obtive aceitação. C'est lá vie
¡ Cuanta belleza!
And to think that Mascagni only wrote the intermezzo as an afterthought to join the two acts of his new and unperformed opera and enter it into a competition for one-act operas - which he won !! It is truly one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music ever written.
Amen to that.
Beautiful melody unbelievable God Bless everyone in ITALY Beautiful amazing country... Love... Simon
This was the last song for my dad. He died 26.11.2017. God bless him
Aww I'm so sorry may his soul rest in peace❤
I thank you so much for your comment.
@@Loganator47 your welcome. I know what it's like to lose someone🙏
We played this at my dads funeral
But I hope he is ok this time, or is he sick? You dont must answer me, if you not speak about this.
35 years years ago I was playing this at full volume. My mother came upstairs and sat down & loved it. She said “please play this at my funeral.. . It makes more sense now... I will
Questo pezzo è di un'intensità incredibile. Tanta bellezza concentrata in relativamente pochi minuti di musica.
El más bello intermezzo de la ópera italiana. Forza Italia!!, saludos desde España.
We played this over my father's photo slideshow at his funeral almost three weeks ago, always loved this piece but now even more, chi vediamo dopo Papa ❤️🇮🇹
너무 아름다운 선율 때문에 눈물이 쏟아집니다 하나님 사랑합니다 감사합니다 저에게 귀가 있어서 이 아름다운 선율을 듣게 하시니 너무 감사합니다
Most moving music have ever heard. Absolutely a gift from God. Thank you
If this doesn't move your soul, nothing ever will.
Yes .....👍👍👍
It didnt. The movie that used this piece did.
True.
You said it...just as I felt it....Thank you
Sublime e meravigliosa... Thanks Maestro Mascagni... 💜🙏💥🌟🎵🎼🎶
È sempre un emozione, mi si forma un groppo in gola e non riesco a trattenere le lacrime, mi passa la vita davanti! Come si può scrivere una musica simile, non so , sembra più opera di Dio che dell uomo.
Dimentichiamo di essere scintille divine ...Ma... a volte qualcuno si riconnette con l'Energia Universale. Allora possono nascere queste meravigliose opere, che riaccendono altre anime.
Un abbraccio 🤗
J'ai eu tellement d émotions, des frissons, et des larmes .
Je ne connaissais pas ce passage, et je vais noter le titre pour le réécouter.
Merci à ceux qui l ont interprétés et à la personne qui l a mis en ligne
I first heard this in the movie, “Raging Bull.” It was used during a slow motion fighting scene. Quite a beautiful, peaceful piece to be used for such a brutal sport. I had to go to the credits to find the name of the music. Since then, this has become one of my favorites. So moving.
The piece was also used in one of the last scenes of the Godfather saga.
I wish this played in Fist of the North Star.
@@KarlSturmgewher this was played in Rurouni Kenshin when Kenshin leaves Kaoru and goes to Kyoto
@@leeminchung9 that’s how I discovered this song lol
For me this is one of the hardest songs to listen to. Simply because so many emotions run through my head when listening to this
You are so right,man.
Like wondering if Man U can beat Liverpool
Emotions run through the body, not the head. But I get what you mean.
TheReddevil50 same!
TheReddevil50 expecially the 0:47 part
I am not normally a fan of opera, but hearing this for the first time I bawled. And I still tear up, this is such a masterful and heartfelt song.
God bless the person who wrote it and ensured it would be heard.~
This is what Italian soul sounds when it sings! No matter how many years go by, this musical piece will always bring tears to whoever listens to it. This is the sound of Eternity!
Che musica fantastica, quando l'ascolto mi vengono in mente le praterie, i vigneti, gli alberi fioriti in primavera, proprio come le immagini che avete associato nel video.
Well here I am 3 years later, I was playing this piece on the piano, googled to make sure I was doing it right and found all these amazing comments! Improved my day! Greetings from South Africa to all you lovely people...you never know, maybe the world really will "live as one" as the song tells us
Truly a spectacular piece of music. I'm so proud to be Italian. Yes, it touches the eye, ear and spirit as someone wrote so beautifully in Italian. Magnifico.
Questa è la nostra Italia. ,,,,,,
andiamo a casa
È vero, complimenti e saluti dall'Argentina!🇦🇷
And look what we are now! Just to be ashamed!!!!!
No need for nationalisms 🤔
Это Божественная музыка. Я из Дагестана,из маленького города Дербент. Эту музыку почувствует тот,кто хоть раз оставался с Собой. Торжествует дух Бога. Браво! До слез!
I used to listen to this as a baby and have been searching for the song ever since!! I am so glad I have found it again xx
è mai possibile che la "Nostra Musica" meravigliosa , apprezzata nel mondo intero, abbia commenti di apprezzamento quasi unicamente da persone straniere!!! dov'è finito l'orgoglio di essere nati nel Paese di Verdi, Puccini, Donizetti, Bellini, Mascagni e chi più ne ha ne metta????? ricordiamo sempre che siamo eredi di una cultura musicale strepitosa e unica al mondo! Grazie.
Cara Giuseppina, non abbiamo ereditato solo la musica!, ricordati che più della metà del patrimonio culturale mondiale è Itaiano! Solo gli str....Non se ne curano, anzi , fanno di tutto per accordarsi con chi sappiamo perché venga distrutto. Ricordi che tempo fa qualcuno aveva affermato che con la cultura non si mangia? Beh, abbiamo davvero fatto passi da....giganti, già, proprio così, deprimente!
La propaganda progressista, europeista, globalista ci ha insegnato ad odiare noi stessi e tutto ciò che è italiano. Sono sempre meglio gli altri, un posto vale l'altro, cittadini del mondo, no frontiere, ecc.
@@LucianoAlighieri1 scopa
@@fabiaccio8493 Ti rode perché sai che è vero.
@@LucianoAlighieri1 vero cosa? che la maggioranza del pianeta non distingue britney spears da puccini? e che c'entra con la italianità, l'orgoglio ecc.ecc.?
Meravigliosa, la dedico a tutti i dottori, infermieri e collaboratori che stanno dando il loro impegno e anche le loro vite per un giorno migliore in questo momento cruciale a motivo del covid-19 Grazie di cuore
Io lo dedico alla libertà perduta
bravo piacciono le tue parole,santé ciao
Giusto. Spero che questa maledetta esperienza ci faccia diventare tutti piu' buoni
Grande Max
For all those people who have lost a loved one. Italy and Spain (my country) must keep strong
This is the most beautiful piece ever composed. I can feel it in my heart and it brings me to tears each time I listen to it
This is one of the most beautiful and marvelous pieces of music ever created .
Quando ho sentito questa musica mi sono ricordato di essere italiano. Una sensibilità cosi accurata può venire solo da un italiano..
Hai detto la Verità
Capolavoro assoluto, livelli di bellezza e di armonia altissimi, tra le vette più alte della musica sinfonica. 🎶❤🔝
💓👋
Mascagni composed this masterpierce at the age of only 27
giuseppe drago 🤯😳no way. Talk about a super genius 😳🤯
@@bordercolliesarebeautiful5280 I don't like it. Its pretentious/aimless/rambling shite.
@@PreservationEnthusiast you're fucking shite
@@PreservationEnthusiast The fantastic thing about art is its power to connect our experiences with the rest of the world. In the same way that an artwork is always, in some way, a reflection of the artist, so too our individual reactions to it are also a reflection of ourselves. Even if this piece doesn't resonate with you in the way it does for some, and I could never really know what it would mean for you, I hope you find or have found art which moves you in the way this music moves me. Everyone deserves that experience.
@@charlesmcg Sure theres plenty of music I like across classical, rock and electronic genres.
You gave your definition of art, but that's not the only one. Another take on it, would be a piece of work that provokes reactions or emotions.
It provoked a reaction in me that it was pretentious shite. I don't like the way the music continually sweeps up in pitch in a cheap attempt to stir emotion like a sound track to an old film. Rather than gushing about the music, I have analysed it and made a relevant comment. So it has provoked a reaction in me, albeit not a positive one. If everyone had the same reaction, what a boring world it would be!
Delighted to chat with you on You Tube comments.
La musica più dolce di sempre....Questo è il lato buono di UA-cam. Onore all'Italia, ancora troppo "calpesta e derisa"
My mom always wanted us to be cultured and know music, plays, opera, paintings, sculptures etc. I had forgotten all about this work until I was rewatching the anime series Rurouni Kenshin and got to episode 31. They were using this song in the most touching scene and I started to cry. This music welled my soul as a child and to hear it and recognize it and to remember those youthful feelings… well it was indescribable. I’m so glad someone posted this to UA-cam. And I’m so thankful that my mother understood the importance of keeping these masterpieces alive within our hearts.
One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written!
I agree...
When kalin twins
perfect..
gets the dopamine flooding in my brain, anyone else?
It's definitely right up there with Firestarter by The Prodigy.
This is truly one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard. I admittedly have a heart of stone but this just moves me to tears.
Maybe it's just from seeing it in the Godfather, but this piece always evokes a feeling of seeing something from a fuller perspective. Something that wasn't always clear while it was going on, that was full of heartbreak, mistakes, and also its pleasures. What wasn't so obvious until now was its incredible beauty, and the piece evokes regret or joy to the extent that we were able to appreciate that while it was going on.
Raging Bull
bella l' aria .
Bella la fotografia .
tutto mi ha portato nel paradiso divino e mi ha riempito di Spirito Santo .
Solo la musica e la bellezza elevano fino a Dio luce e armonia .
Mamma mia che spettacolo, per le orecchie e per gli occhi e per l'anima!

Da brividi ! Bellissima interpretazione. Grazie mille.
TRULY, one of the most beautiful, sublime , calming and superb pieces of music ever written.
If I understand some of the previous comments in Italian, I would like to state that I have never been to Italy, though it is one of my life's dreams, not only to visit its modern cities, but more importantly, the countryside. When I listen to this beautiful music, I travel there in my imagination. Such powerful, but sublime music almost brings me to tears. Bravo!!!
Questa musica mi avvicina alla serenità, ascoltando la sua dolce melodia, la mia anima trova pace, è fantastica
Боже мой!Какая красота!Красота духовная!Красота Пьетро!Красота Италии!С большой любовью из России.
Wow, great to see my great grandfather at work
Cap
How proud you must be! This piece of music evokes both sadness and joyfulness. Yes, to me one of the most emotional pieces of music ever written
Respect
Really? If so, much respect to your family!!
The most beautiful song ever composed.
Gracias por este maravilloso video. Una obra musical sublime acompañada de unas imágenes bellísimas. Un millón de gracias.
The intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana Is marvelous ! I am proud to have been born in the city of Mascagni and that is LIVORNO ♥️🇮🇹,which also gave birth to A.Modigliani and G.Fattori !
Mi piace Livorno,ho dei bei ricordi
@@paolorossi9180 grazie 👍, LIVORNO è una città importante e bella che merita quindi di essere ben visitata, quanto meno x vedere il suo meraviglioso lungomare (con la Terrazza Mascagni, realmente unica) tra i più estesi e affascinanti d'EUROPA, ma anche il suggestivo( soprattutto by night) quartiere di Venezia ecc.
@@carlosacchelli8451 Ero militare al Distaccamento dell'Accademia navale ed ero spesso in citta',per questo conosco bene Livorno.Spero un giorno di poterla visitare
@@paolorossi9180 allora buon ritorno a Livorno . Eventualmente , quando ci tornerai,se non l'hai mai visto ti consiglio di visitare il Museo Civico FATTORI ( se ti piace la grande pittura) ed anche lo splendido SANTUARIO di MONTENERO con il suo meraviglioso panorama. CIAO
Wow did not know he cane from Livorno was in livorno each summer because my dads geandfather had a house in a small village Montemarchello not far from Livorno.
The theme music of "Raging Bull"(1980) and also the final scene of "The Godfather: Part 3"(1990)
Also used in Watchmen for *SPOILER* for Hollis Mason´s death scene.
This was my first thought too. Masterpiece for masterpieces!
The ending of episode 31 in Rurouni Kenshin
@@Riwillion THATS the movie I was trying to remember it from. I heard it from Godfather 3 and it was driving me nuts
and also the hymn from Bosnia and Herzegowina⚠️⚠️
Siendo jóvenes, mi padre le pidió a mi madre que en su funeral se escuchara el intermedio de Cavalleria rusticana y quiso el azar que el día de mi bautizo el organista tocase esta pieza... Lo que iba a ser muerte se convirtió en vida
Beautiful 🙏
P😊
Estupenda, acho que o compositor estava muito feliz nesse dia

Amazing indeed !!!
I’d be interested to hear more about your Baptism, what do you actually believe ?
God Bless
Very beautiful pictures presented together with the outstanding beautiful Cavalleria Rusticana. Thank you so much! Greetings from Britt, Sweden
Hi Britt, it's one of the very few operatic arias that I'm familiar with. I tried to visualize it through images of the region of Tuscany in central Italy. Thank you for watching. . . Romi

A good reminder of the beautiful region I live in. Cheers from Florence, Italy.

Thank you for this beautiful compilation! I loved listening to classical music with my father ~ he introduced me to beautiful music and the beauty of nature. I can now take a tour through Tuescany with him! Thanks Romi! ~ Thanks Dad!
I never tire of this melody, one of the most beautiful in all of opera. To match it, the photography had to be perfect, and it is.
After a thirteen hour day at the pharmacy, this is exactly what I needed. Pure bliss.
I'm just starting to appreciate the beauty of classical music and this particular piece has probably become my favorite so far.
Maggnetik Ravishing ！ which national person are you ？
Classical music is opposite world of popular music. Popular is like beautiful reality. While classical is heaven 🎶
Using this to wash away the pain of 2020
The most brilliant piece of music I have heard in many years. Glorious.
One of The Greatest Pieces of Music Ever Made. 😢❤
Это божественная музыка в исполнении
таких же музыкантов!!!😪👏👏👏,браво!!!
