The Great Operas of Giacomo Puccini is a detailed account of the life and work of Giacomo Puccini by Gustav Kobbé, with a particular focus on his operatic compositions. Giacomo Puccini (1858 - 1924) was a famous Italian opera composer. He is often hailed as the greatest composer of Italian opera after Verdi. His most notable compositions include: La Bohème (1896), Tosca (1900), Madama Butterfly (1904), and Turandot (1924). This volume is highly recommended for opera lovers and is not to be missed by those with an interest in the life and work of one of it's greatest figures. Gustav Kobbé (1857 - 1918) was an American author and music critic famous for his guide to the operas, The Complete Opera Book, (1919). Other notable works by this author include: The Ring of the Nibelung (1887), Wagner's Life and Works (1890), and New York and its Environs (1891). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of the theatre.
