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.[1] Mascagni was keen to take commission for the film music due to the financial burden of supporting two sickening brothers.[2][3] The French-German TV channel Arte restored the film in 2006 and Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz, conducted by Frank Strobel recorded Mascagni's score.
