On November 29, 1924, Giacomo Puccini, the last of the great Italian opera composers, passed away. His works, however, are immortal, and today they are an integral part of the standard repertoire of renowned opera houses worldwide. In celebration of the musician from Tuscany, on November 29, 2024, exactly one hundred years after his death, Konzago Concerts presents a sumptuous overview of Puccini's grand oeuvre, featuring timeless masterpieces such as Tosca, La Bohème, Madama Butterfly, Manon Lescaut, and Turandot. To honor the occasion, a select ensemble of magnificent vocal soloists will pay tribute to the genius composer, including Brazilian tenor Ricardo Tamura, who achieved international acclaim ten years ago in the role of Cavaradossi (Tosca) at the New York Metropolitan Opera. Alongside him will be the powerful soprano Soojin Moon, who most recently impressed as the title role in Turandot at the Staatstheater Darmstadt. Once again, the established Frankfurt Symphony Orchestra will provide the orchestral foundation for this special evening, with knowledgeable moderation by opera expert Rainer Zagovec from Rüsselsheim. An evening of the highest Italian musical art, an evening of emotions and brilliant voices, an evening for which one thing is absolutely clear: "Nessun Dorma – Let no one sleep!"
