Silvano (opera)

Silvano is a dramma marinaresco (literally a "seafaring drama") or opera in two acts by Pietro Mascagni from a libretto by Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti, based on a novel by Alphonse Karr. It received its first performance on 25 March 1895 at La Scala, Milan. Although rarely performed today, the music (if not the drama) is of some technical accomplishment, and when revived, Silvano has been favourably received.[1] The barcarolle from Silvano features prominently in a montage during the Martin Scorsese film Raging Bull.[2]
