Intermezzo

[ojarazca]

Magico, exquisito, dulce, paz, amor, ternura, extasis, todo eso en esta melodia.

[Hamhark98]

@karik333 He didn't compose it though.

[rokky258]

well, first where's the harp? Second, the artist was Pietro Mascagni. It was PLAYED by Andre Reiu

[lordhenry214]

Queria saber qual o nome do dvd que está a gravação?

[Clytia]

Ah, my favourite piece from Mascagni's works. I fell in love with this song right away when I first heard it when I was 14.

[miketheman321]

@Clytia Ha, exactly the same as me. It was when I first heard it in "The Godfather Part III" and "Raging Bull".

[rossinibaritone]

What a heartfelt piece of music from the Verismo period. Excellent performance! Beautiful imagery!  Brings me to tears.

[Consuelo888]

Que extraordinaria interpretación!!! Llega directamente al alma!! a lo mas profundo del corazón!!********

[itswagon]

I think this is the best recording from Rieu that I've heard (and seen). Very well done -- and I am a Mantovani fan. Bravo!!!

[Jamezo001]

Indeed Pietro Mascagni (The Composer) Was A Very Passionate Man And He Certainly Must Have Had Some Sort Of Heavenly Gift If He Can Compose Such An Artistic And Elegant Piece As This. It Is Without A Doubt The Most Beautiful Composition I Have Ever Heard Although Appolonia - Nino Rota Is A Close Contender, And Andre Is A Master Of The Strings. He Certainly Brings The Piece To Life.

[MrVoyager123]

when he wrote this piece of music he must have had God in his heart its so beautiful

[luisuny]

de quién esta pieza? como que la he escuchado en la tele.

[DanieldelosAndes]

@luisuny es el intermezzo de la opera Cavalleria Rusticana,de Pietro Mascagni...

[monjiou1]

As someone once quipped..."Cavalleria is the only opera that is too Short !!" A few more notes maybe in the Intermezzo would be so welcome.

[cesarecollura62]

bravo

[4cups]

BRAVO, Pietro Mascagni

[TexadaTube]

Tantos y tantos recu3rdos me llegan en cascada con este Intermezzo... si cierro los ojos aun puede sentir la sensación del momento, cuando cantamos esta Opera y la ciudad era nuestra... y el público estaba fascinado con nuestras voces, y las prisas tras bambalinas... las sonrisas en los corredores, los cambios de vestuarios tras escenario y un sudor de éxito se derramaba en nuestras manos al abrazarnos. la felicidad es una falacea, es verdad, se escapa de las manos cuando menos te lo esperas

[monjiou1]

Your words are so poetic. Worthy of Jacques Brel or Leonard Cohen. I speak no Spanish, only read with dictionary. However, I do not need help to read your beautiful thoughts. If I could write music I would set your lyrics to music. You must get together with a music writer.

[TexadaTube]

Jaques Brel is good, I do not know Leonard Cohen, I would like to heard him..

[monjiou1]

Cohen is so poetic...try him.  I read again some of your enchanting words "..la ciudad era nuestra...y el publico estaba fascinado..." ricordi felici.

[barneswriter]

It is classical!

Fine music

[alwaysinmydream1]

One of amazing masterpieces of all time.

Pietro Mascagni really get your heart and sole.

[lugia3]

amazing. Classical music at its finest.

[roflcopter117]

It's not Classical.

[lugia3]

I knew I would get a comment like this where someone has to comment on such a minor detail. If you want to prove me wrong then tell me what it should be called, instead of saying "Its not classical." That really doesn't help.

[redsoxclaret]

They play it on Classic FM so that's good enough for me, it's classical

[TXOrchDork]

@roflcopter117 How so? It's by Pietro Mascagni (might want a Spell check on that xD) and it's from his opera, Callveria Rusticana

[MrShanks2010]

thats rubbish! how on earth can it not be called classical? its one of the great musical pieces of all time. respected by every classical radio station around the world..

[MARIYOYIS]

such an amazing masterpiece! i feel so relaxed when i listen to it....

[jackloops]

It found it finally.

amazing!

[hedjede]

@jackloops me too!

[Stealth1873]

Same here '@hedjede

[52claudio52]

Complimenti per il video e naturalmente per la meravigliosa musica di Mascagni.

[levler01]

My aorta seeps when I listen to this.

[levler01]

Was this used in a commercial?

[coalcoalcoal]

Holllis Mason - Watchmen

[WalkenTheWalk]

Ja LaMotta - Raging Bull

[jestemKamieniem]

[Calinn86]

Masterpiece!

(No, Drugnidzo, you suck!)

[Rockwildon]

[aaGit]

penis in your anus? more likely than you think!

[ikko909]

[pdomett]

[gustaavo423]

magnífico ....simplesmente magnífico

[poetavesgo]

Simply fantastic...

[fishtankman7]

i love this song so much

its very sad though

but i love it for its divine sound and heart striking appeal

molto bello! :)

[SomethingaboutSimmo]

Is that Tom Hanks playing at 2:05?!

[Riddler95]

No its not ?

Its Andre Rieu.

[Riddler95]

This music was used in the ending of The Godfather Part 3. It's too bad it wasn't included on the soundtrack.

[manlyman80345]

I'm sure you know that Raging Bull had its claim at this as well.

[Riddler95]

Yeah I know but only during the end credits.

Godfather 3 had it during the movie's ending.

[drugnidzo]

How come? That sucks!

[MikeWinpeg]

A wonderful composition performed by a truly professional orchestra. What more could a music lover ask for?

[UPBonaterra]

Simply magnificent

[winner1996]

we're playing this @ the SCSBOA festival with our orch

[itsjustmeh44]

such a beautiful+sad song

[Calinn86]

i agree with beautiful, but, strangely, it doesn't make me sad at all.. this music expresses me joy, it's a matter of interpretation i guess

[manlyman80345]

Andre Rieu is an incredible conductor in many ways. He can make all music fun and enjoyable, but also knows how to handle tender, loving pieces such as this one. I love him sooooo much :).

[gabrielsirio]

This is wonderful! Words cannot describe what this song makes us feel...

[yourforte]

This was beautiful

[MCLbanaan]

Probably the best performance by Andre Rieu. What a wonderfull classical piece.

[COLINEMM]

Your point is?

[Serco555]

only a few guys are listening this kind..

[COLINEMM]

Your age makes no difference. I'm 15.

Also, your profile page says you're 19.

[Andyman57]

Wooow... i usually cry of this song but this vid blew my mind... so inspirational ... <3

[DARIVSARCHITECTVS]

Words cannot describe how beautiful and inspirational this is !

[benifuz]

chicos , alguien me puede decir como se llama el hombre q toca el violin principal??',,porfaaa....ah y escuchen bolero, esa tb es buenaza

[manufuche]

André Rieu es quien toca el violín. Es holandés y nació en 1949.

[sorenotes]

beautiful just beautiful

[lionize13ace]

this song reminds me of robert deniro shadow boxing in raging bull every time i listen to it but i have it on my mp3 and I love it

[dvdcarlos033]

ESTA MÚSICA TRAZ PAZ PARA A ALMA...

[Hendragon3775]

I want this song in my wedding and my funeral ! That was so peace to leave !

[alejandra379]

OF all the popular pieces of classical music, this is one of the most beautiful and dramatic.

[periposa]

¡Sublime!El talento , la armonía ,el sentido místico ,todo aunado, eleva nuestro espíritu.

Gracias Conobariensis , amigo de mi alma peregrina.

[sabhti]

Qué maravilla!!,Gracias amigo Antonio por enviarmelo,me llenó de paz .

[mjebrail]

beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hoshimem]

I do really love this music.

[eurotastavins]

tranquilidad y espiritualidad...

[gertjanremmelink]

and jou are

[muzz100]

The piece is beautiful, yes, one of my favourites. I don`t want to spoil the mood, but the Andre Rieu stuff is just awful. The posturing and cheesy smiles to the heavens is embarrasing in the extreme.

[bearcolombia]

true, but of all the vids this one was still the most sublime

[penfloyd]

Beautiful Music..Beautiful Venue......

Good for the soul.........

[stratford74]

Adoro ouvir e vêr concertos do André Rieu, e esta é uma das minhas favoritas melodias tocadas por Ele e sua orquestra

Bravo!!

[muh24]
