English Summary:

Giacomo Antonio Domenico Michele Secondo Maria Puccini (Italian: [ˈdʒaːkomo putˈtʃiːni]; 22 December 1858 – 29 November 1924) was an Italian opera composer who has been called "the greatest composer of Italian opera after Verdi".

Puccini's early work was rooted in traditional late-19th-century romantic Italian opera. Later, he successfully developed his work in the realistic verismo style, of which he became one of the leading exponents.

Puccini's most renowned works are La bohème (1896), Tosca (1900), Madama Butterfly (1904), and Turandot (1924), all of which are among the important operas played as standards. 

Turandot, Puccini's final opera, was left unfinished, and the last two scenes were completed by Franco Alfano based on the composer's sketches. The libretto for Turandot was based on a play of the same name by Carlo Gozzi. The music of the opera is heavily inflected with pentatonic motifs, intended to produce an Asiatic flavor to the music. Turandot contains a number of memorable stand-alone arias, among them Nessun dorma.

 

Hungarian Summary: 

A sodró lendületű nyitányok, fülbemászó dallamok és népszerű áriák a 20. század leghíresebb operacsillagainak előadásában, a legendás élő felvételek a milánói Scalában, a New York-i Metropolitanben vagy a Bécsi Állami Operaházban páratlanul izgalmas zenei élményt jelentenek mindenkinek. 

Helyezze kényelembe magát és élvezze, hogy otthonába költözik az operaházak varázslatos világa! 

A "Világhíres operák" sorozat e gazdagon illusztrált kötetében a "Turandot" című opera történetével és a szerző Giacomo Puccini életútjával ismerkedhetünk meg. A sok színes történet, érdekesség mellett a CD-n az operát is meghallgathatjuk.
