What a beautiful opera! it's strange if you think that Puccini didn't finish it because he died before....
marti wrote:Yes, it's true, Puccini didn't finish it. the ending was made by Luciano Berio from "Tu che di gel sei cinta" to the end.
I read also that first time this opera was performed in 1926 in Milan (Puccini died in 1924), the director of the orchestra was Arturo Toscanini.
then when he arrived to the point of the aria "Tu che di gel sei cinta", he stopped all musicians and said to the audience:" I stop here music, because in this moment Master Puccini is died" , and the audience brusted into applause.
