    Pagliacci, verismo opera with both words and music by Ruggero Leoncavallo. Based on an actual crime, Pagliacci owes its continuing success in part to the composer’s ability to balance humour, romance, and darkly violent moods. It premiered in Milan on May 21, 1892, with the conductor Arturo Toscanini on the podium.
    Pagliacci is the best-known of Leoncavallo's ten operas and remains a staple of the repertoire. Pagliacci is often staged with Cavalleria rusticana by Pietro Mascagni, a double bill known colloquially as "Cav/Pag". Leoncavallo was a little-known composer when Pietro Mascagni 's Cavalleria rusticana premiered around 1890.

    No Pagliaccio non son… ( No, I’m not Pagliaccio… Although my face is white… The heart that bleeds wants blood to wash away the shame!) An equally powerful aria and maybe even more distressing. In fact to such a degree that the audience gives him a hand of applause thinking it was a part of the play.
