Mascagni is best known for \u003ci\u003eCavalleria Rusticana\u003c\/i\u003e, but he wrote fifteen other stage works and over 100 other compositions, including sacred music, songs and film scores. Overshadowed by his contemporary Puccini and tainted by association with the fascist regime of Mussolini, Mascagni is both a famous and neglected opera composer. This volume charts the decline in performances of Mascagni's operas other than \u003ci\u003eCavalleria Rusticana\u003c\/i\u003e and reveals a growing interest in and changing attitude toward the composer. The discography includes more than 2,500 recordings, and the annotated bibliography includes 361 titles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis research tool will appeal to Mascagni and to opera scholars.
