Excerpt from The Opera Goers' Complete Guide: Comprising Two Hundred and Twenty-Nine Nine Opera Plots With Musical, Numbers and Casts
Lyrical drama in three acts by Niccola Spinelli. Libretto founded upon the work of Goffredo Cognetti by Eugene Checchi.
Cast: Mother Mary - Soprano. Her children Sewell - Soprano, Luigino - Tenor. Ciccillo - Baritone. Pascale, innkeeper - Basso. Pichillo - Tenor. Time, the present. First production, Cologne, 1894.
Act I. Acquaquilia Street "at the lower harbour." Pichillo, Pascale and Luigino are gambling with other members of the Camorra. Maria attempts to free her son of his passion for gambling but fails. Ciccillo quarrels with his companions, while in another group Maria and Sesella endeavour to pacify the son and brother, who, however, retaliates by deriding his sister for her love for Ciccillo. When the others have departed, Ciccillo detains Sesella and proposes flight. Luigino, who has been listening, attempts to stab Ciccillo, but is prevented by Maria and Sesella. Ciccillo, formerly in love with Maria, determines to revenge himself against her by compelling Sesella to lead a degraded life and by making Luigino a convict. Pascale appears shouting that the Camorra has been betrayed. Ciccillo, who committed this traitorous act through love of power, stands calmly by, but is suspected by Maria.
Act II. Interior of Pascale's inn. Pichillo and Luigino are singing with a chorus of boon companions, when Ciccillo enters the inn and strikes Luigino in the face. Swearing vengeance Luigino is thrust out by his companions while Ciccillo accuses him of treason. When alone Ciccillo deplores his past life and vows to live for vengeance alone.
