Word origin
The term 'intermezzo' originated in Italy in the 18th century and was initially used to describe instrumental music performed between acts of an opera or other musical work. Over time, it came to refer to a specific type of musical composition, typically shorter and more light-hearted than the main pieces. Intermezzos became popular in the Romantic era and are still commonly used in music today.
