Dramatis Personæ.

CHARACTERS.

Santuzza, a village girl | Soprano.
Lola, wife of Alfio | Mezzo Soprano.
Turiddu, a young soldier | Tenor.
Alfio, a teamster | Baritone.
Lucia, mother of Turiddu | Contralto.

Chorus of peasants and villagers.— Chorus behind the scenes.

## PLOT OF THE OPERA.

Turiddu, a young villager, is the son of Lucia, and the lover of Lola, (who is the wife of Alfio; having married the latter during Turiddu's prolonged absence in military service). Turiddu wins the affections of Santuzza, whom he wrongs; while, in the meantime, he is intimate with Lola. On Easter morning, (the opening of the opera), Alfio is incidentally informed, by Santuzza, of his wife's unfaithful actions. He challenges Turiddu (biting the ear, as was the rustic Sicilian custom). Turiddu, though regretting his past evil course, accepts the challenge and is killed by Alfio.

[Pg 4]

Turiddu. (Behind the scenes.)
O Lo-la, fair as flow'rs in beau-ty smil-ing, ...
Love from thy soul-lit eyes
Soft-ly is glow-ing; ...
He who would kiss thy lips, red and be-guil-ing ...
Bliss-ful and fa-vor'd were he,
Such heav-en know-ing!...
Tho' thy thresh-old blood, crim-son, is stain-ing, ...
Car-ing for naught, I seek thee, scorning to hide me; ...
What tho' I for-feit life, thy pres-ence gain-ing?
What were the joy of heav'n, wert thou de-nied me!
What tho' I for-feit life, thy pres-ence gain-ing,
What were the joy of heav'n wert thou de-nied me.
Ah! ... Ah! ... Ah! ... Ah! ...
O Lo-la, bian-ca co-me fior di spi-no, ... quan-do t'af-fac-ci te s'affac-(cia il) so-le; ...
Chi t'ha ba-cia-(to il) lab-bro por-po-ri-no ...
Gra-zia più bel-la a Di-o chie-der non vô-le....
C'e scrit-to san-gue so-pra la tua por-ta; ...
Ma di re-star-(ci a) me non me n'in-por-ta; ...
Se per te mo-(jo e) va-(do in) pa-ra-di-so,
Non c'en-tro se ... non ve-do il tuo bel vi-so,
Se per te mo-(jo e) va (do in) pa-ra-di-so
Non c'en-tro se ... non ve-do il tuo bel vi-so.
Ah! ... Ah! ... Ah! ... Ah! ...
(Curtain rises.)

[Pg 5]

## Scene I.

A public place or square in a Sicilian village.

At right, in background, a church. At left, the inn and dwelling of Mamma Lucia.

Time, Easter morning.

(Peasants, countrymen, country-women, and children, cross the stage.)

(The church doors open and the throng enters.)

(The movement continues until the following:)

Introductory Chorus.

Chorus of women.
(Behind scenes.)
Ah! Ah!
Chorus of men.
(Behind scenes.)
Ah! Ah!
Chorus of women.
(Behind scenes.)
Sweet is the air with the blossoms of oranges;
Sings now the lark from the myrtles in flow'r;
Murmurs of tender song tell of a joyful world,
And of thankful hearts. Ah! gladsome hour!
(The women enter.)
Chorus of men.
(Behind scenes.)
Your spinning wheels now busily are humming,
O'er fields of golden corn the sound is coming;
We linger where the leafy shade is restful;
Of you we think, and every heart is zestful.
Oh lovely women! Allured by you and enraptured,
Like the bird by the lure held, now are we captured!
(The men enter.)

Women.
Work in the field now is ended;—
The Holy Mother mild
In ecstasy fondles the Child.
All.
(Withdrawing from stage.)
Murmurs of tender song tell of a joyful world,
And of thankful hearts.
Ah! gladsome hour!
(Enter, Santuzza, approaching Lucia's dwelling.)

[Pg 6]

### Scena I.

La scena rappresenta una piazza in un paese della Sicilia.

Nel fondo, a destra, Chiesa con porta practicabile. A sinistra l'osteria e la casa di Mamma Lucia.

E il giorno Pasqua.

Coro d'Introduzione.

(Campane interne dalla Chiesa. Si alza la tela. La scena sul principio è vuota. Albeggia. Paesani, contadini, contadine e ragazzi traversano la scena. Si apre la chiesa e la folla vi entra. Il movimento del popolo continua fino al Coro punto in cui rimane la scena vuota.)

Coro.
(Donne di dentro.)
Ah!
(Uomini di dentro.)
Ah!
(Donne di dentro.)
Gli aranci olezzano sui verdi margini,
Cantan le allodole tra i mirti in fior;
Tempo è si mormori da ognuno il tenero canto che i palpiti—
Raddoppia al cor.
(Le donne entrano in iscena.)
(Uomini di dentro.)
Coro. In mezzo al campo tra le spiche d'oro
Giunge il rumore delle vostre spole,
Noi stanchi riposando dal lavoro
A voi pensiamo, o belle occhidisole.
O belle occhidisole, a voi corriamo,
Come vola l'augelo—al suo richiamo.
(Gli uomini entrano in iscena.)

Donne. Cessin le rustiche opre:
La Virgine serena allietasi del Salvator;
Tempo è si mormori da ognuno il
tenero canto che i palpiti—
Raddoppia al cor.
Uomini.
(Allontanandosi.)
In mezzo al campo, etc.
Donne.
(Allontanandosi.)
Gli aranci olezzano, etc.

[Pg 7]

## Scene II.

(Santuzza, Lucia, Alfio, and chorus.)

Santuzza. Tell me, mother Lucia—
Lucia.
(Coming from house.)
It is thou? What wilt thou?
Sant. Where is Turiddu?
Lucia. For him you ask? For him, my son Turiddu!
Sant. Only for him I ask you. Pardon, but answer!
Where is Turiddu?
Lucia. Ask me not! I know not; I want no trouble.
Sant. Mamma Lucia, with weeping do I pray you!
Even as spake the Saviour to the Magdalen,
Say, in pity say, where is Turiddu!
Lucia. He's gone to bring some wine from Francofonte.
Sant. No! Last night some within the village saw him.
Lucia. What says't thou? Who told it?
Nay, he hath not yet returned.
Enter!
Sant. I may not step across your threshold,
I cannot pass it, I, most unhappy outcast!
Excommunicated!
Lucia. What of my son? What hast thou to tell me?
Sant. Ah! the torture, the heart-pain.
(Cracking of whips and jingling of bells behind scenes.)
(Chorus enters, followed soon by Alfio.)

[Pg 8]

### Scena II.

Sortita di Alfio.

Santuzza.
(Entra e si dirige alla casa di Lucia.)
Dite, Mamma Lucia—
Lucia.
(Sortendo.)
Sei tu? che vuoi?
Santuzza. Turiddu ov'è?
Lucia. Fin qui vieni a cercare il figlio mio?
Santuzza. Voglio saper soltanto,
Perdonatemi voi, dove trovarlo.
Lucia. Non lo so, non lo so, non voglio brighe!
Santuzza. Mamma Lucia, vi supplico piangendo,
Fate come il Signore a Maddalena,
Ditemi per pietà, dov'è Turiddu.
Lucia. E andato per il vino a Francofonte.
Santuzza. No! l'han visto in paese ad alta notte.
Lucia. Che dici? che dici? se non è tornato a casa!
Entra!
Santuzza. Non posso entrare in casa vostra.
Sono scomunicata!
Lucia. E che ne sai del mio figliuolo?
Santuzza. Quale spina ho in core!
(Dall'interno schiocchi di frusta e tintinnio di sonagli.
Entrano in iscena i coristi indi Alfio.)

[Pg 9]

[Listen: {2min 8sec} ]

Alfio.
Gay-ly moves the tramp-ing horse,
Joy-ful sound the ring-ing bells;
Snap, now, the lash goes, A-hi!...
Cold may blow the wind to-day,
Rain or snow do what it may,
Naught do I care, not I!...
Gay-ly moves the tramp-ing horse,
Joy-ful sound the ring-ing bells;
Snap, now, the lash goes,

Her gen-tle grace en-thralls me,
Ah! ... faith-ful-ly she calls....
My lov-ing Lo-la calls me,
Her gen-tle grace en-thralls me,
Ah! fond-ly I re-ply....
Gay-ly moves the tramping horse,
Joy-ful sound the ring-ing bells;

'Tis Eas-ter and home come I!...

A-hi! A-hi! Snap, now, the lash goes, a-hi!
Snap, now, the lash goes,

A hap-pier man than I?... Where is a jol-lier man,
where is a jol-lier man?
'Tis Eas-ter, home come I, ... come I!...
Where is a jol-lier man, a jol-lier man?...

Lucia. Blest are you, friendly Alfio!
So favored, ever thus to be gay!
Alfio. Mamma Lucia, have you that rare old wine,
The same as ever?
Lucia. Not now; Turiddu has gone to buy a plenty.
Alfio. No; he is here! I saw him here this morning;
He lingered near my cottage.
Lucia.
(Surprised.)
What now!
Santuzza.
(Rapidly, to Lucia.)
Be silent!
Alfio. I will not tarry,
You will to church devotedly?

Praise the Lord.

(All enter the church, except Santuzza and Lucia.)

[Pg 11]

### Scena III.

Lucia. Beato voi, compar Alfio,
Che siete sempre allegro così!
Alfio.
(Spigliato.)
Mamma Lucia,
N'avete ancora di quel vecchio vino?

Lucia. Non so; Turiddu è andato a prov vederne.
Alfio. Se è sempre qui!
L'ho visto stamattina vicino a casa mia.
Lucia.

(Tutti entrano in chiesa tranne Santuzza e Lucia.)

[Pg 12]

## Scene IV.

Romanza.

Lucia.
(To Santuzza.)
And why with signals would you gain my silence?
Santuzza. Now shall you know, kind mother:
Ere he went forth as a soldier,
Turiddu pledged his love to Lola,
All his faithfulness renewing
But; ah! homeward returning,
Married he found his Lola!
And, her falsity shaming—
All the old love subduing—
Loved me!
And I loved him!
With jealousy, hatefully, and with madness,
Scorning wifely duty, envious of my gladness,
Lola, in malice shameful, regains Turiddu!
Fate disgraceful o'ertakes me,
My own Turiddu forsakes me!
Lola and he in joy remain,
Having each other's love again!
Ah me! alone I weep, I weep!
Lucia. Grief is upon us!
Such dire and woeful tidings to hear this holy morning.
Santuzza. I am accursed! I am accursed!
Good mother, go pray for me unto the Saviour!
Thou'lt beseech Him for me!
I'll seek Turiddu, and pray to him
That he again may love me!
Lucia. Holy Mary be with thee—the blessed Mary!

(Lucia enters the church)

[Pg 13]

### Scena IV.

Lucia. Perchè m'hai fatto segno di tacere?
Santuzza. Voi lo sapete, o mamma, prima d'andar soldato
Turiddu aveva a Lola eterna fè giurato.
Tornò, la seppe sposa; e con un nuovo amore
Volle spegner la fiamma che gli bruciava il core
M'amò, l'amai, l'amai, ah!
Quell' invida d'ogni delizia mia,
Del suo sposo dimentica, arse di gelosia.
Me l'ha rapito. Priva dell' onor mio,
Dell' onor mio rimango:
Lola e Turiddu s'amano, io piango!
Lucia. Miseri noi, che cosa vieni a dirmi
In questo santo giorno?
Santuzza. Io son dannata.
Andate, o mamma, ad implorare Iddio,
E pregate per me. Verrà Turiddu,
Vo' supplicarlo un' altra voltra ancora!
Lucia. Ajutatela voi, Santa Maria!

(Lucia entra in chiesa.)

[Pg 14]

## Scene V.

Duet. Santuzza and Turiddu.

Turiddu.

(Entering.)
Thou here, Santuzza!

Santuzza. Here I await thee.

Turiddu. Attending not the service of Easter?

Santuzza. Not now! Thee would I speak with.

Turiddu. I seek my mother.

Santuzza. Thee would I speak with!

Turiddu. Not here, not here!

Santuzza. From whence dost thou come?

Turiddu. Why dost thou ask me?—
From Francofonte.

Santuzza. Ah, that is false!

Turiddu. Santuzza, believe me!

Santuzza. No! thou art lying!
Over yon path I beheld thee approach:
And thou wert seen to-day returning homeward
From the dwelling of Lola!

Turiddu. Ah! thou wert spying!

Santuzza. No, I do swear it!
Her husband, Alfio, saw thee
Here within the town, and told it me!

Turiddu. So thou rewardest the love I gave thee,
What though he slay me!

Santuzza. Ah! Tell me not of murder!

Turiddu. Leave me, I tell thee! leave me!
The rage within me burning—
My righteous wrath, thou canst not assuage!

Santuzza. Then, thou oost love her!
More fair than I is Lola!
False friend! Oh, curses on her!

Turiddu. Santuzza!

Santuzza. She—vilest woman, steals the love that should be mine!

Turiddu. Heed thou!
I am no slave to thy envy
Scornfully showing, jealously showing.

Santuzza. Insult and punishment I am unheeding!
Yet do I love thee,
Even though anguish my heart is rending,
E'en though in sorrow my life is ending.

[Pg 15]

### Scena V.

Turiddu.

(Entrando.)
Tu qui Santuzza?

Santuzza. Qui t'aspettavo.

Turiddu. È Pasqua in chiesa non vai?

Santuzza. Non vo. Debbo parlarti.

Turiddu. Mamma cercavo.

Santuzza. Debbo parlarti.

Turiddu. Qui no! qui no!

Santuzza.
(Parlato.)
Dove sei stato?

Turiddu.
(Parlato.)
Che vuoi tu dire? A Francofonte.

Santuzza. No, non è ver.

Turiddu. Santuzza credimi.

Santuzza. No, non mentire
Ti vidi volgere giù dal sentir.
E stamattina all' alba t'hanno
Scorto presso l'uscio di Lola.

Turiddu. Ah! mi hai spiato!

Santuzza. No! te lo giuro, a noi l'ha raccontato
Campar Alfio il marito poco fa.

Turiddu. Così ricambi l'amor che ti porto?
Vuoi che m'uccida?

Santuzza. Oh! questo non lo dire.

Turiddu. Lasciami dunque, lasciami invantenti sopire
Il giusto sdegno colla tua pietà.

Santuzza. Tu l'ami dunque?

Turiddu. No!

Santuzza. Assai più bella è Lola!

Turiddu. Taci, non l'amo.

Santuzza. L'ami, l'ami, Oh! maledetto!

Turiddu. Santuzza!

Santuzza. Quella cattiva femmina ti tolse a me!

Turiddu. Bada, Santuzza, schiavo non sono
Di questa vana tua gelosia.

Santuzza.
(Con angoscia.)
Battimi, insultami, t'amo e perdono
Ma è troppo forte l'angoscia mia.
(Troncando nel sentire avvicinarsi Lola.)

[Pg 16]

## Scene VI.

Lola's Ditty.

Lola.
(Behind scenes.)
Bright flower, so radiant!
Angelic thousands stand arrayed in heaven,
Yet none so fair as thou hath yet been given!
(Enters. Pauses suddenly.)
Oh! Turiddu, hast thou seen Alfio?

Turiddu. I came but this moment: I have not.

Lola.Then at the forge perchance he awaiteth.
Here I must not linger.
And thou?
Is't here in public thou art praying?

Turiddu.
(Confusedly.)
Santuzza here was telling—

Santuzza. I was saying this is Easter!
(Meaningly.)
And the Lord all things beholdeth!

Lola.
(To Santuzza.)
Thou wilt not go to the service?

Santuzza. No, no! None shall attend but those
Who know they are not guilty!

Lola.
(Vehemently.)
In the grace of the Saviour
I bow before thee!

Santuzza.
(Bitterly.)
O, well thou speakest!—
Lola!

Turiddu.
(Embarrassed.)
(To Lola.)
Away then! Come, Lola;
Here there is naught to hold us.

Lola.
(Ironically.)
Oh, stay thou with her!

Santuzza.
(To Turiddu.)
Yes, stay thou!
(Firmly.)
I have something yet to tell thee:
Lola.
(Mockingly.)
May the Saviour assist thee!
(Going.)
So, I will leave thee.
(Enters the church.)

[Pg 17]

### Scena VI.

Lola.
(Dentra alla scena.)
Fior di giaggiolo
Gli angeli belli stano
A mille in cielo
Ma belli come lui
Ce n'è uno solo.
(Entra in iscena e s'interrompe.)
Oh! Turiddu, e passato Alfio?

Turiddu. Son giunto ora in piazza non so.

Lola.Forse è rimasto dal maniscalco ma non può tardare!
E voi sentite le funzioni in piazza?

Turiddu.
(Confuso affret.)
Santuzza mi narrava—

Santuzza. Gli dicevo che oggi è Pasqua
E il Signor vede ogni cosa.

Lola.Non venite alla messa?

Santuzza.
(Subito.)
Io no, ci deve andar chi sa
(Con intenzione.)
Di non aver peccato!

Lola.
(Con forza.)
Io ringrazio il Signore, e bacio in terra!

Santuzza.
(Esprimendosi.)
Oh! fate bene, fate bene,
(Con amarezza.)
Lola!

Turiddu.
(A Lola.)
(Impacciato.)
Andiamo, andiamo, Oni non abbiani che fare.

Lola.
(A Turiddu.)
Oh!
(Con ironia.)
Rimanete.

Santuzza.
(A Turiddu con fermezza.)
Sì, resta, resta,
Ho da parlarti ancora.

Lola.
(Sempre ironica.)
E v'assista il Signore,
(Con caricatura.)
Io me ne vado.
(Entra in chiesa.)

## Scene VII.

Continuation of the Duet.

Turiddu.
(To Sant.)
Ah! how foolish! naught availing!

Santuzza.
(Coldly.)
I have spoken; 'tis well—'tis the truth.

Turiddu.
(Threateningly.)
Ah! by heaven!

Santuzza.My heart is breaking!

Turiddu.
(Approaching her.)
No!

Santuzza.
(Warding him away.)
Turiddu, ah! hear me!

Turiddu.
Go!
(Turns from her.)

Santuzza.
(Threateningly.)
False! False!

Turiddu.
(With increased rage.)
Thus I reward thee in my anger.
(Throws her down, and hastens into the church.)

Santuzza.
(In the height of fury.)
Accurs'd! accurs'd at Easter, thou false one.
(Falls, despairingly.)

[Pg 19]

### Scena VII.

Turiddu.
(Con ironia.)
Ah! lo vedi, che hai tu detto?

Santuzza.
(Fredda.)
L'hai voluto e ben ti sta!

Turiddu.
(S'avventa.)
Ah! Per Dio!

Santuzza. Squarciami il petto.

Turiddu.
(S'avvia.)
No!

Santuzza.
(Trattenendolo.)
Turiddu, ascolta!

Turiddu. Va!

Santuzza.
(Minacciosa.)
Bada!

Turiddu.
(Con moltissima forza.)
Dell'ira tua non mi curo!
(La getta a terra e fugge in chiesa.)

Santuzza.
(Nel colmo dell'ira.)
A te la mala Pasqua, spergiuro!
(Cade affranta ed angosciata.)

## Scene VIII.

Duet, Santuzza and Alfio.

(Enter, Alfio.)
Santuzza.
(Calming herself.)
Oh! doth the Saviour send thee, neighbor Alfio?

Alfio.At what point is the service?

Santuzza. 'T is now at closing.
But I tell thee Lola has gone with Turiddu!

Alfio.
(Surprised.)
What are you saying?

Santuzza.While thou dost labor to earn an honest living,
Lola unfaithfully her love is giving.

Alfio.Ah! in the name of heaven, Santuzza, what sayest thou?

Santuzza. The truth!
Turiddu forsakes me—and he hath betrayed me!
'T was your wife who enticed him away from me!

Alfio.
(Threateningly.)
And if thou art lying
I'll have thy heart's blood!

Santuzza. Lies, as yet, my lips have never uttered.
Prone to be truthful am I.

Alfio.
(After a pause.)
Santuzza, I am thankful that you have spoken.

Santuzza.But ah! what shame!
And I have told it thee!

Alfio.
(Suddenly, in fury.)
T'is they who are shameful!
Revenge I'll have upon them!
This day and hour my wrath
Shall fall upon them!

[Pg 22]

### Scena VIII.

(Sorte Alfio e s'incontra con Santuzza.)

Santuzza.
(Ad Alfio rianimandosi.)
Oh! Il Signore vi manda, compar Alfio.

Alfio.
(Tranquillo.)
A che punto è la messa?

Santuzza.
È tardi ormai, ma per voi
(Con intenzione.)
Lola è andata con Turiddu!

Alfio.
(Sorpreso.)
Che avete detto?

Santuzza.Che mentre correte
All'acqua e al vento a guadagnarvi il pane,
Lola v'adorna il tetto in malo modo!

Alfio.Ah! nel nome di Dio, Santa che dite?

Santuzza. Il ver. Turiddu mi tolse, mi tolse l'onore,
E vostra moglie lui rapiva a me!

Alfio.
(Minaccioso.)
Se voi mentite, vo' schiantarvi il core.

Santuzza. Uso a mentire il labbro mio, il labbro mio non è!
Per la vergogna mia, pel mio dolore
La trista verità—vi dissi, ahimè!

Alfio.
(Dopo un poco di pausa.)
Comare Santa, allor grato vi sono.

Santuzza. Infame io son che vi partai così!

Alfio.Infami loro, ad essi non perdono
Vendetta avrò pria che tramonti il dì!
Io sangue voglio, all'ira m'abbandono,
In odio tutto l'amor mio finì!

(Escono.)

Now Easter day shall be for all a time of rest,
Without sorrow or care.

Chorus of women.
(Lola and Turiddu come from the church.)

Turiddu.My pretty Lola! Have you not a greeting,
When honest people we are meeting?

Lola.I must leave thee.
I must go and welcome Alfio!

Do not hasten!
(To the people.)
Meanwhile, good friends, come hither.

Hail! the ru-by wine now flow-ing, Bright-ly in the cup now show-ing,

Or che letizia rasserena gli animi.

Coro.(Donne.)
A casa, a casa, amiche, ecc.
[Lola e Turiddu escono dalla chiesa.]

Turiddu. Comare Lola, ve ne andante via
Senza nemmeno salutare?

Lola.Vado a casa; Non ho visto compar Alfio!

Turiddu. Non ci pensate, verrà in piazza.
(Rivolgendosi al Coro che s'avvia.)
Intanto, amici, qua,
Beviamone un bicchiere.
(Tutti si avvicinano alla tavola dell' osteria e prendono in mano i bicchieri.)

Ai vostri amori!

## Finale.

Alfio.Unto all of you, greeting!

Chorus.Neighbor Alfio, greeting!

Turiddu.
(To Alfio.)
Hearty welcome!
Now join with us in revel.
(Fills a glass for him.)
Look you! drink you this measure!

Alfio.Thank you! but I must refuse the offer!
A cup of deadly poison perhaps you proffer!

Turiddu.Then suit your pleasure!
(Throws away the wine.)

Lola.Ah me! what now befalls!
(Some of the women consult together, and then approach Lola, saying:)
Neighbor Lola, come, haste away from here!
(Exit, all the women, with Lola.)

Turiddu.
(To Alfio.)
Perhaps you have something to tell me!

Alfio.I? nothing!

Turiddu. Then hear me!
You will find me at your service!

Alfio.This moment?

Turiddu. This moment!
(They embrace, Turiddu bites Alfio's ear, viciously.)

Alfio.Neighbor Turiddu, you give a ready challenge!
And I accept it! you understand me!

Turiddu.Neighbor Alfio!
I own thou shouldst have vengeance,
And I admit, in the name that is holy,
That I should be dealt with as a dog, by thee!
But, shouldst thou kill me—if I perish
By thine arm—yes, if I perish,—
Unhappy Santa, she whom I have cherished—
Lone, unhappy Santa, my dagger
Will embed within thy heart!

Alfio.Good neighbor, act upon it as may suit you!
You will find me yonder in the orchard.
(Exit.)

Turiddu.
(Calling.)
My mother!
(Enter Lucia.)
Mother! the wine-cup too freely passes!
Exciting, crazing!
Too many cups I have been drinking!
——I must leave you, good mother!

But first let me ask for a kindly blessing,
As on that day when I became a soldier.
And, mother, hear me—and heed it:
If I return not, thou unto my Santa
Must be a kindly mother!
Santa, whom I promised I would lead to the altar!
—If I return—

Lucia.Why say you this to me?
What is it? tell me!

Turiddu.Ha—nothing!
'Tis wine—that I have drunk so freely.
—For me oh! pray to heaven,
That I may be forgiven!
One kiss, one kiss, my mother!
And yet—and yet another!
Farewell!

(Rushes off, desperately.)

Lucia. Turiddu! Ah!
(Retires to back of stage, crying.)
(Enter, Santuzza.)
Santuzza!

Santuzza.Ah! good mother!
(Throws her arms around Lucia's neck.)
(People crowd upon the stage.)
(Excitement and agitation.)
(Enter a woman in the distance crying, "Neighbor Turiddu is murdered.")

(Several women hastily enter, terrified. One of them shrieks—)
"Neighbor Turiddu is murdered."
(All rush upon the stage.)

All.Ah!

(Santuzza falls; swooning. Lucia faints, and is supported by some of the women.)

THE CURTAIN FALLS RAPIDLY.

[Pg 28]

### Finale.

(Entra Alfio.)

Alfio.A voi tutti salute.

Coro.Compar Alfio, salute.

Turiddu.Benvenuto! con noi dovete bere,
(Empie un bicchiere.)
Ecco pieno è il bicchiere.
(Troncando.)

Alfio.Grazie, ma il vostro vino io non l'accetto,
Diverrebbe veleno entro il mio petto!

Turiddu.
(Parlato.)
A piacer vostro.
(Getto il vino.)

Lola.Ahimè che mai sarà?

(Alcune donne nel Coro si consigliano fra loro poi si av vicinano a Lola dicendole sotto voce.)

Coro.Comare Lola, andiamo via di qua.
(Tutte le donne escono conducendo Lola.)

Turiddu.Avete altro a dirmi?

Alfio.Io nulla.

Turiddu. Allota sono agli ordini vostri—

Alfio.Or ora?

Turiddu. Or ora!
(Si abbracciano. Turiddu morde l'orecchio destro di Alfio.)

Alfio.Compar Turiddu, a vete morso, a buono!
(Con intenzione.)
Cintenderemo bene a quel che pare!

Turiddu.Compar Alfio.
Lo so che il torto è mio;
E ve lo giuro nel nome di Dio
Che al par d'un cane mi farei sgozzar—
Ma s'io non vivo,
(Dolorosamente.)
Resta abbandonata povera Santa!
Lei che mi s'è data!
(Con impeto.)
Vi saprò in core il ferro mio piantar!

Alfio.
(Freddamente.)
Compare fate come più vi piace,
Io v'aspetto qui fuori dietro l'orto.
(Esce.)

Turiddu.
(Chiamando.)
Mamma—
(Entra Lucia.)
Mamma—quel vino è generoso,
E certo oggi troppi bicchier
Ne ho traccannati—
Vado fuori all' aperto—
Ma prima voglio che mi benedite—
Come quel giorno che partii soldato:
E poi mamma,
Sentite, s'io non tornassi—
Voi dovrete fare da madre a Santa,
Ch'io le avea giurato di condurla all' altare.

Lucia.Perchè parli cosi, figliolo mio?

Turiddu.
(Con disinvoltura.)
Oh! nulla, è il vino che m'ha suggerito!
M'ha suggerito il vino—
Per me pregate Iddio,
Un bacio mamma! un altro bacio
Addio!
(Fugge disperatamente.)

Lucia.Turiddu! che vuoi dire!
(Va in fondo alla scena a disperatamente chiama.)
Turiddu! Turiddu! ah!
(Entra Santuzza.)
Santuzza.

Santuzza.Oh! madre mia!

(Le getta le braccia al colla. La scena si popolo. L'agitazione si scorge sul volto di tutti. Che scambievolmente s'interrogano con terrore. Si ode un mormorio confuso da lontano. Una donna sola, assai lontano, gridando.)

Hanno ammazzato compare Turiddu!

(Si sentono delle voci confuse più vicine. Alcune donne entrano atterrite correndo, ed una di esse grida disperatamente.)

Hanno ammazzato compare Turiddu!
(Tutti si precipitano sulla scena.)
Santuzza, Lucia e Coro.
(Gridando.)
Ah!

(Santuzza cade priva di sensi, Lucia sviene ed è sorretta dalle donne del Coro. Tutti restano atterriti.)

CALA RAPIDAMENTE LA TELA.

## THE A CAPPELLA CHORUS BOOK

Edited by

DR. F. MELIUS CHRISTIANSEN and NOBLE CAIN

For Mixed Voices Price, in Boards, $1.00

Outstanding choral compositions of Bach, Brahms, Gibbons, Kopolyoff, Lassus, Morley, Palestrina, Pearsall, Praetorius, Purcell, Rachmaninoff, Rimsky-Korsakoff, Sibelius, Tchaikovsky, Vittoria, Wilbye, and Zolotarieff; a few folk melodies, and a negro spiritual.

This notable collection of twenty-seven choruses, one hundred and twenty-eight music pages, contains sixteen secular numbers and eleven sacred. The names of the distinguished editors are a guarantee of the high quality of the book. Care has been taken to avoid music of more than average difficulty, or of extreme vocal range.

Every number was chosen because of its intrinsic beauty as well as singableness. The interesting Foreword by the managing editor records the development of a cappella music in this country.

Unparalleled in both quality and price.

Each number is also issued separately

## THE JUNIOR A CAPPELLA CHORUS BOOK

Edited by

OLAF C. CHRISTIANSEN and CAROL M. PITTS

For Mixed Voices Price, in Boards, $1.00

Contains one hundred and twenty-eight pages of music, an elaborate and helpful Foreword, and Hints for the Singers by Dr. Hollis Dann.

Of the fifty-one musical numbers, forty-two are secular and nine are sacred. More than half are made available in a cappella form for the first time.

As the best possible preparation for acquiring independent movement of voices accustomed only to part-songs that move solidly together, the book opens with fifteen canons, rounds, and catches by Byrd, Hayes, Haydn, Hilton, Purcell, and others. These are followed by two canzonets of Morley (two-part) and three-part (S. A. B.) choruses by Shield and Ford and arrangements of folksongs. The body of the book consists of four-part madrigals, folksongs, two Negro spirituals, and other choruses. Several five-part songs are included. Morley, Weelkes, Pilkington, Bennet, Gevaert, Lully, Praetorius, Mozart, Bortniansky, Archangelsky, Sibelius, and others are represented.

While the musical standard of the editors is high, pains have been taken to selectmusic that not only is suitable in range and text for junior choruses, but is hearty, joyous, and singable.

This truly significant volume will fill a great need, and be the happiest possible introduction to the art of unaccompanied chorus singing.

Each number is also issued separately

## NEW CHORAL WORKS

WRITTEN FOR

SCHOOLS

BIZET, GEORGES
Choral Fantasia from Carmen (Arranged by N. Clifford Page).50

No opera has more numbers that are known and loved for their piquant rhythms and exquisite melodies than Bizet's masterpiece. It teems with color and life. The editor has introduced all the best of these and in the logical order in which they appear in the score. Solos, trios and choruses are all present in an easy choral arrangement, which closes brilliantly with the famous Toreador March.

GOUNOD, CHARLES
Choral Fantasia from Faust (Arranged by N. Clifford Page).50

The arranger has cleverly contrived that all the best known solos, concerted numbers and chorus are included in this fantasia, in the order in which they appear in the opera. All are treated chorally, and difficulties are so treated that high schools and popular choruses may perform the work.

COERNE, LOUIS ADOLPHE
Skipper Ireson's Ride (Cantata for Mixed Voices).30

To Whittier's stirring ballad, based on a quaint incident in an old New England past, the composer has made attractive and ingenious music, especially adapted for performance by schools and amateur societies.

HOSMER, E. S.
Columbus(Cantata for Mixed Voices) (Also issued for Men's Voices).40

A short and easy work, the music melodious though not without dramatic touches. It calls for a solo baritone. The part writing makes large use of unisons, and awkward progressions have been avoided.

(Also issued for men's voices)

## The Clippinger Class-Method of
Voice Culture

by D. A. CLIPPINGER

An altogether sane, balanced and practical text book by one of America's eminent authorities on the voice. It contains 132 pages of instructive text, technical exercises, melodic studies, and carefully chosen songs and duets.

The author's deep study of the voice together with his long experience in solving difficult vocal problems in the studio has enabled him to rid the subject of vagary, mystery, and uncertainty, and state the principles of voice-training so clearly and simply that they may be understood by anyone.

A FEW BASIC PRINCIPLES

A tone is something to hear. Therefore, to be right it must satisfy the trained ear.

A good tone is easily produced. It is the bad tone that is difficult.

A considerable part of voice-training must be devoted to getting rid of resistance, that is, effort at the wrong point.

Good voice-production is based on the right idea of tone and right conditions of the instrument.

The study of singing should be an invigorating and inspiring form of exercise.

To sing well is an accomplishment well worth the time and effort involved.

AIM OF THE BOOK

An adequate treatment of breath-control, vowel-formation, vowel-color, tone-quality, resonance, consonants, phonetic spelling, diction, the head voice.

Ample exercises for flexibility.

An illuminating discussion of interpretation, and how to study a song.

An outline of the principles of interpretation as a basis of criticism.

Purchase of outside material unnecessary.

The book is COMPLETE in itself, with ample text, nearly 150 exercises and studies, 25 songs and 7 duets.

PRICE, $1.25

What Educators have said regarding Professor Hamilton's

MUSIC APPRECIATION

Sumner Salter, Director of Music, Williams College:
"I am convinced of the skill and thoroughness of treatment and of the far reaching practical value of the work."

Walter H. Aiken, Director of Music, Cincinnati, Ohio:
"One of the best, in my opinion, of anything thus far in print leading to music appreciation through music analysis: telling the pupil what to study and how."

Arthur Foote, Boston, Mass.
"The scheme is a new one and seems to me of much practical value. The analyses are lucid and just the thing to teach the pupil how to think and work out such matters for himself."

H. D. Sleeper, Professor of Music, Smith College:
"Capitally planned and carried out to meet a very definite need—the awakening of intelligence regarding good music in the minds of young people of high school and college age."

Joseph N. Ashton, Director of Music, Abbott Academy, Andover, Mass., formerly Professor of Music, Brown University:
"An admirable book. The music selected as a basis of study is such as the student would be expected to be acquainted with. The scheme avoids on the one side mechanical dryness and on the other vague and valueless rhapsody. With this book sterile study is well-nigh impossible."

Mrs. Frank A. Seiberling, President National Federation of Music Clubs:
"The book will be invaluable to use in music clubs as a means of getting a fundamental understanding of the history of music and the various forms of compositions. When our next pamphlet goes out to the clubs of our national federation I shall list the book for use as a reference manual for the entire season for club study."

Dr. Percy Goetschius, Institute of Musical Art, New York City:
"I am thoroughly delighted with the book. It is an original, very sensible and practical method of approaching this important subject; it is admirably planned and its comprehensive contents admirably systematized; and it is written with a delightful mixture of simplicity and erudition that makes it both easy to use and appealing to the student."

A List of Victor Record Illustrations to accompany Music Appreciation, by Clarence C. Hamilton, A. M., Professor of Music at Wellesley College, has been prepared by the Educational Department of the Victor Talking Machine Company, and will be sent free to any address, on request, by Oliver Ditson Company.

    THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
    PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK

    To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
    distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
    (or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
    Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full
    Project Gutenberg-tm License available with this file or online at
    www.gutenberg.org/license.

    Section 1. General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic works

    1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
    and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
    (trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
    the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or
    destroy all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your
    possession. If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a
    Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound
    by the terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the
    person or entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph
    1.E.8.

    1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
    used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
    agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
    things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
    even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
    paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this
    agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below.

    1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the
    Foundation" or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection
    of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual
    works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
    States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
    United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
    claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
    displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
    all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
    that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
    free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
    works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
    Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
    comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
    same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
    you share it without charge with others.

    1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
    what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
    in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
    check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
    agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
    distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
    other Project Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no
    representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
    country outside the United States.

    1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:

    1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other
    immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear
    prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work
    on which the phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the
    phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
    performed, viewed, copied or distributed:

      This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
      most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
      restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
      under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this
      eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the
      United States, you'll have to check the laws of the country where you
      are located before using this ebook.

    1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
    derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
    contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
    copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
    the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
    redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase "Project
    Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply
    either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or
    obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg-tm
    trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

    1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
    with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
    must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any
    additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms
    will be linked to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works
    posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the
    beginning of this work.

    Gutenberg-tm License.

    1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
    compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including
    any word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access
    to or distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format
    other than "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official
    version posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site
    (www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense
    to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means
    of obtaining a copy upon request, of the work in its original "Plain
    Vanilla ASCII" or other form. Any alternate format must include the
    full Project Gutenberg-tm License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

    performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works

    access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
    provided that

    * You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
      the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
      you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed
      to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he has
      agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
      Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
      within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are
      legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty
      payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
      Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in
      Section 4, "Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg
      Literary Archive Foundation."

    * You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
      you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
      does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
      License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
      copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
      all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg-tm
      works.

    * You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of
      any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
      electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of
      receipt of the work.

    * You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
      distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.

    1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic work or group of works on different terms than
    are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing
    from both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and The
    Project Gutenberg Trademark LLC, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm
    trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.

    1.F.

    1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
    effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
    works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
    Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
    contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
    or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
    intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
    other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
    cannot be read by your equipment.

    1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
    of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
    Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
    liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
    fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
    LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
    PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
    TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
    LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
    INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
    DAMAGE.

    1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
    defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
    receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
    written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
    received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
    with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
    with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
    lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
    or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
    opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
    the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
    without further opportunities to fix the problem.

    1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
    in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO
    OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT
    LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

    1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
    warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
    damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
    violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
    agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
    limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
    unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
    remaining provisions.

    1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
    trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
    providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in
    accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the
    production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm
    electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
    including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
    the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
    or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
    additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
    Defect you cause.

    Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

    Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
    electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
    computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
    exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
    from people in all walks of life.

    Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
    assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
    goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
    remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
    and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
    generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
    Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
    Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
    www.gutenberg.org

    Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
    Literary Archive Foundation

    Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
    spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
    increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
    freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
    array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
    ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
    status with the IRS.

    The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
    charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
    States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
    considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
    with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
    where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
    DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
    state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

    While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
    have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
    against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
    approach us with offers to donate.

    International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
    any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
    outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

    Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
    methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
    ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
    donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

    Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.

    Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
    Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
    freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
    distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
    volunteer support.

    Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
    editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
    the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
    necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
    edition.
