Question: Who was born first, Pietro Mascagni or Mikhail Glinka?
Context: Pietro Antonio Stefano Mascagni (] ; 7 December 1863 – 2 August 1945) was an Italian composer most noted for his operas. His 1890 masterpiece "Cavalleria Rusticana" caused one of the greatest sensations in opera history and single-handedly ushered in the "Verismo" movement in Italian dramatic music.  While it was often held that Mascagni, like Leoncavallo, was a "one-opera man" who could never repeat his first success, "L'amico Fritz" and "Iris" have remained in the repertoire in Europe (especially Italy) since their premieres.  Mascagni said that at one point, "Iris" was performed in Italy more often than "Cavalleria" (cf. Stivender). This is a discography of Cavalleria rusticana, an opera by Pietro Mascagni.  It premiered at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome on 17 May 17, 1890.  There have been over 100 full-length recordings of "Cavalleria rusticana" published since it was first recorded in Germany in 1909.  Mascagni himself has conducted the opera in two recordings, the best-known of which is the 1940 EMI recording made to mark the 50th anniversary of the opera's premiere.  The performance by the La Scala orchestra and chorus with Lina Bruna Rasa as Santuzza and Beniamino Gigli as Turiddu also has a spoken introduction by Mascagni.  Originally released as an LP, it is available on CD under several historical recording labels, including Naxos. Nestor Vasilievich Kukolnik (Russian: Нестор Васильевич Кукольник ) (1809–1868) was a Russian playwright and prose writer of Carpatho-Rusyn origin.  Immensely popular during the early part of his career, his works were subsequently dismissed as sententious and sentimental.  Today, he is best remembered for having contributed to the libretto of the first Russian opera, "A Life for the Tsar" by Mikhail Glinka.  Glinka also set many of his lyrics to music. Rapsodia Satanica was a 1915 silent film directed by Nino Oxilia featuring Lyda Borelli in a female version of Faust based on poems by Fausto Maria Martini.  Pietro Mascagni wrote his only film music for the film and conducted the first performance in July 1917.  Mascagni was keen to take commission for the film music due to the financial burden of supporting two sickening brothers.  The French-German TV channel Arte restored the film in 2006 and Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz, conducted by Frank Strobel recorded Mascagni's score. Kamarinskaya (Russian: камаринская ) is a Russian traditional folk dance, which is mostly known today as the Russian composer Mikhail Glinka's composition of the same name.  Glinka's "Kamarinskaya", written in 1848, was the first orchestral work based entirely on Russian folk song and to use the compositional principles of that genre to dictate the form of the music.  It became a touchstone for the following generation of Russian composers ranging from the Western-oriented Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to the group of nationalists known collectively as The Five and was also lauded abroad, most notably by French composer Hector Berlioz. Amica is an opera in two acts by Pietro Mascagni, originally composed to a libretto by Paul Bérel (the pseudonym of Paul de Choudens).  The only opera by Mascagni with a French libretto, it was an immediate success with both the audience and the critics on its opening night at the Théâtre du Casino in Monte-Carlo on 16 March 1905.  Mascagni himself conducted the performance.  The opera had its Italian premiere (with an Italian libretto by Mascagni's close collaborator, Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti) on 13 May 1905 at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome. Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka (Russian: Михаи́л Ива́нович Гли́нка ; 1 June [O.S. 20 May] 1804 15 February [O.S. 3 February] 1857 ) was the first Russian composer to gain wide recognition within his own country, and is often regarded as the fountainhead of Russian classical music.  Glinka's compositions were an important influence on future Russian composers, notably the members of The Five, who took Glinka's lead and produced a distinctive Russian style of music. Mala Pasqua!  (Bad Easter!)  is an opera in three acts composed by Stanislao Gastaldon to a libretto by Giovanni Domenico Bartocci-Fontana.  The libretto is based on Giovanni Verga's play, "Cavalleria rusticana" ("Rustic Chivalry") which Verga had adapted from his short story of the same name.  "Mala Pasqua!"  premiered on 9 April 1890 at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome, six weeks before Pietro Mascagni's opera "Cavalleria rusticana" which was also based on Verga's play.  Bartocci-Fontana's libretto adds some elements that were not in Verga's original and expands on others.  The name of the Santuzza character was also changed to Carmela, but the basic plot and setting remain the same.  Its title refers to the curse which Carmela places on Turiddu, the lover who had spurned her: "Mala Pasqua a te!"  ("May you have an evil Easter!") .  Following its Rome premiere "Mala Pasqua!"  had a few more performances in Perugia and Lisbon, but it was completely eclipsed by the phenomenal success of Mascagni's opera.  After the 1891 Lisbon run it was not heard again until 2010 when it was given a semi-staged performance in Agrigento, Sicily. The Great Glinka (Russian: Глинка , "Glinka " ) is a 1946 Soviet biopic film directed by Lev Arnshtam.  The film is about Mikhail Glinka, a Russian composer of the 19th century.  The film was awarded the Stalin Prize of II degree (1947) and it was entered into the 1946 Cannes Film Festival. Lina Bruna Rasa (24 September 1907 – October 1984) was an Italian operatic soprano.  She was particularly noted for her performances in the verismo repertoire and was a favourite of Pietro Mascagni who considered her the ideal Santuzza.  Bruna Rasa created the roles of Atte in Mascagni's "Nerone", Cecilia Sagredo in Franco Vittadini's "La Sagredo" and Saint Clare in 's 1926 oratorio, "Trittico Francescano".  She also sang the role of Tsaritsa Militrisa in the Italian premiere of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's "The Tale of Tsar Saltan".
