AuthorBooks · Second hand1858-1924
Giacomo Antonio Domenico Michele Secondo Maria Puccini was an Italian composer known primarily for his operas. Widely regarded as the greatest and most successful proponent of Italian opera after Verdi, he was descended from a long line of composers, stemming from the late Baroque era. Though his early work was firmly rooted in traditional late-nineteenth-century Romantic Italian opera, it later developed in the realistic verismo style, of which he became one of the leading exponents.

His legacy includes universal masterpieces such as La bohème, Tosca, and Madama Butterfly.
Beyond his role as a composer, Puccini also worked as a conductor, organist, and even ventured into politics.
