| Extra Information
|
This work was banned on the grounds in Italy that it infringed the copyright of Mascagni's Cavalleria rusticana by Pietro Mascagni. Later on the composer changed the work completely with this same music as this opera with a new librettist called "La giostra dei falchi" in 1914.
