The libretto by {{Interlanguage link multi|Enrico Cavacchioli|it|3=Enrico Cavacchioli|vertical-align=sup}} and {{Interlanguage link multi|Guglielmo Emanuel|it|3=Guglielmo Emanuel|vertical-align=sup}} is based on The Gypsies, a narrative poem by Alexander Pushkin. The opera premiered on 16 September 1912 at the Hippodrome Theatre in London.[1] Despite the opera's present obscurity, its incredibly long run in London in 1912/3 and performances in the United States in 1912/3 make it Leoncavallo's most performed opera after Pagliacci, surpassing the performances of his more widely known Zazà and La bohème.{{citation needed|date=July 2014}} Although Edigio Cunego, who created the role of Radu and appeared in hundreds of performances of Zingari in London (sometimes twice a day), recorded much from Leoncavallo's operas, he did not record any excerpts from Zingari.{{citation needed|date=July 2014}} Roles
SynopsisPlace: The lands along the lower Danube River Time: Early 1900s Act 1Setting: A Gypsy encampment on the shore of the riverFleana, a beautiful Gypsy, has been seen stealing out of the camp at night. Several members of the band follow her and discover that she is meeting a stranger. He is Radu, a young nobleman. The lovers are taken captive. Radu swears an oath that if he is allowed to marry Fleana, he will join the band and never again have dealings with his own people. The couple are pardoned, but the poet, Tamar, protests violently and declares his own love for Fleana. He is rebuked by Fleana and challenged to a fight by Radu but vanishes from the camp. As Fleana and Radu's wedding is being celebrated, Tamar sings a mournful song in the distance. Act 2Setting: A Gypsy encampment at an abandoned church on the plains near the riverA year has passed. Radu notices that Fleana has become increasingly cold to him. He hears her singing a wild love song in her caravan and he realizes that she must be in love with someone else. When he confronts her, she confesses that her love for him is dead and continues to sing her song ever more wildly. She then runs away, despite Radu's attempts to stop her, and goes to meet Tamar whose jubilant song is heard in the distance. They passionately declare their love for each other and disappear into a nearby hut made from straw and wood. Outside, Radu is in despair and vowing revenge. He steals up to the hut, bolts the door from the outside and sets it on fire. Tamar and Fleana perish in the flames.[4] RecordingsThere have been three full-length recordings of the opera, all from live performances:[5]
