In music, an intermezzo (Italian pronunciation:[ˌinterˈmɛddzo]), in the most general sense, is a composition which fits between other musical or dramatic entities, such as acts of a play or movements of a larger musical work. In music history, the term has had several different usages, which fit into two general categories: the opera intermezzo and the instrumental intermezzo.
Renaissance intermezzo
The Renaissance intermezzo was also called the intermedio. It was a masque-like dramatic piece with music, which was performed between the acts of a play at Italian court festivities on special occasions, especially weddings. By the late 16th century, the intermezzo had become the most spectacular form of dramatic performance, and an important precursor to opera. The most famous examples were created for Medici weddings in 1539, 1565, and 1589.
Opera intermezzo
The intermezzo, in the 18th century, was a comic operatic interlude inserted between acts or scenes of an opera seria. These intermezzi could be substantial and complete works themselves, though they were shorter than the opera seria which enclosed them; typically they provided comic relief and dramatic contrast to the tone of the bigger opera around them, and often they used one or more of the stock characters from the opera or from the commedia dell'arte. In this they were the reverse of the Renaissance intermezzo, which usually had a mythological or pastoral subject as a contrast to a main comic play. Often they were of a burlesque nature, and characterized by slapstick comedy, disguises, dialect, and ribaldry. The most famous of all intermezzi from the period is Pergolesi's La serva padrona, which was an opera buffa that after the death of Pergolesi kicked off the Querelle des Bouffons.
(HD 1080p) Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana, Pietro Mascagni
Opera composers sometimes wrote instrumental intermezzi as connecting pieces between acts of operas. In this sense an intermezzo is similar to the entr'acte (intermission). The most famous of this type of intermezzo is probably the intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana, by Pietro Mascagni..
Here is a video of landscape images of Tuscany, Italy set to the music of the intermezzo from this opera wriitten by Pietro Mascagni.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
THE GLOBAL #1 BESTSELLER 'Intermezzo is perfect ... Is there a better novelist at work right now?' Anthony Cummins, Observer 'Her most mature and moving book to date ... I read it in a state of rapture.' Johanna Thomas-Corr, Sunday Times 'If a perfect Sally Rooney novel exists, this might just be it . Her best novel yet.' Evening Standard 'Rooney has discovered her full literary prowess.' Jo Hamya, Independent From the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Normal People, an exquisitely moving story about grief, love and family. Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common. Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties - successful, competent and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father's death, he's medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women - his enduring first love Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke. Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined. For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude - a period of desire, despair and possibility - a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking. Sally Rooney's book Intermezzo was a bestseller w/c 30/09/2024

Intermezzo Review: https://readingwhilewalking.com/intermezzo-sally-rooney-review/
On my first Rooney disappointment: https://readingwhilewalking.substack.com/p/its-ok-to-dislike-that-book
In music, an intermezzo (Italian pronunciation:[ˌinterˈmɛddzo]), in the most general sense, is a composition which fits between other musical or dramatic entities, such as acts of a play or movements of a larger musical work. In music history, the term has had several different usages, which fit into two general categories: the opera intermezzo and the instrumental intermezzo.
Renaissance intermezzo
The Renaissance intermezzo was also called the intermedio. It was a masque-like dramatic piece with music, which was performed between the acts of a play at Italian court festivities on special occasions, especially weddings. By the late 16th century, the intermezzo had become the most spectacular form of dramatic performance, and an important precursor to opera. The most famous examples were created for Medici weddings in 1539, 1565, and 1589.
Opera intermezzo
The intermezzo, in the 18th century, was a comic operatic interlude inserted between acts or scenes of an opera seria. These intermezzi could be substantial and complete works themselves, though they were shorter than the opera seria which enclosed them; typically they provided comic relief and dramatic contrast to the tone of the bigger opera around them, and often they used one or more of the stock characters from the opera or from the commedia dell'arte. In this they were the reverse of the Renaissance intermezzo, which usually had a mythological or pastoral subject as a contrast to a main comic play. Often they were of a burlesque nature, and characterized by slapstick comedy, disguises, dialect, and ribaldry.

Selznick production "Intermezzo - A Love Story" released through United Artists Corporation, featuring Leslie Howard and introducing Ingrid Bergman Like the dream you dream tonight That fades from sight when darkness disappears Maybe you will vanish too The moment when tomorrow's dawn appears So, my love while stars above in Heaven's blue Are softly gleaming I'll dream of you And I'll live in the glory of your love When I see the shadows falling On a purple summer evening Then is when I hear you calling Across the lonely years Oh, how well I still remember When another summer evening One that started out in splendor Ended in tears Like the dream you dream tonight That fades from sight when darkness disappears Maybe you will vanish too The moment when tomorrow's dawn appears So, my love while stars above In Heaven's blue are softly beaming and gleaming Then I'll live in the glory of your love ------------------------------------------------
