 | Giacomo Puccini (1858 - 1924)  ItaliaGiacomo Antonio Domenico Michele Secondo Maria Puccini (December 22, 1858 ? November 29, 1924) was an Italian composer whose operas, including La bohème, Tosca, and Madama Butterfly, are among the most frequently performed in the standard repertoire. Some of his melodies, such as "O mio babbino caro" from Gianni Schicchi and "Nessun dorma" from Turandot, have become part of modern culture. Although Puccini is mainly known for his operas, he also wrote some orchestral pieces, sacred music, chamber music and songs for voice and piano. |
