About This Song
About "Cavalleria rusticana: A casa, a casa, amici, ove ci aspettano" by Renato Cellini
In 'A casa, a casa, amici,' the chorus bustles with forced cheer, neighbors gathering for a feast that tastes of ash. Cellini captures the hollow clink of glasses and the nervous laughter of a community pretending not to smell blood. The domestic scene is a trap closing slowly.
