CANIO SURPRISES THE LOVERS ACT IT Canto, who has not seen Silvio, but has heard Nedda s parting words, now rushes towardthe wall. Nedda bars his way. The record begins with the melodramatic music writtenby Leoncavallo for this exciting struggle, during which Canio pushes her aside and runsin pursuit of Silvio.

Well done, Tonio! Tonio (with fiendish satisfaction): I hope in the future to do better! Canio re-enters, out of breath and com-pletely exhausted.
