The Collection Giacomo Puccini Limited Edition
Giacomo Puccini was born in Lucca in 1858, Italy, into a family with a long history of music. At age 14 he was a church organist and choirmaster, but it was not until he saw a performance of Verdi’s Aida that he became inspired to be an opera composer. He studied at the Milan Conservatory and in 1882 he wrote a one-act opera, Le Villi that caught the attention of Giulio Ricordi, who commissioned a second opera, Edgar (1889). Manon Lescaut (1893), his third opera, was a great success. It launched his remarkable relationship with the librettists Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa, who collaborated with him on his next three operas: La Boheme (1896), Tosca (1900), Madame Butterfly (1904) Composition was slow after this. In 1910, Puccini completed La fanciulla del West, which he later on thought of as his most powerful opera, and, in 1917, finished the score of La rondine. In 1918, Il Trittico premiered in New York. This work is composed of three one-act operas: a horrific episode (Il Tabarro), in the style of the Parisian Grand Guignol, a sentimental tragedy (Suor Angelica) and a comedy or farce (Gianni Schicchi). Of the three, Gianni Schicchi is the most popular. He died on November 29, 1924. Another composer finished Turandot, his last opera, but when it was performed the orchestra stopped, the performers froze in position and the
conductor turned to the audience and said: “Here the opera finishes, because at this point the Maestro died”.
