Join us, Nick & Glenn, as we journey through two artistic styles from the close of 19th century Italy...and post WW2 Italy:

Verismo Opera & Italian Cinema's Neo-Realism.

As we provide discussions and perspectives on the origin of the Verismo operatic genre, through the explosion of the Neo-Realist film movement, you'll hear an abundance of wonderful clips from both opera and film:

Pagliacci, the unique La Wally, Puccini's popular masterpiece "Tosca,"with the great Maria Callas, and more!

Along with DeSica's "The Bicycle Thief" & Visconti's "Belissima."

Listen to exciting performances throughout the podcast... from opera stars-Franco Corelli, Giuseppe DiStefano, and Renata Tebaldi...along with gripping performances from film legends-Anna Magnani & Sophia Loren.
