“Homage a Puccini” on December 29 on ARTE Concert
Due to a strike, the concert in honor of Giacomo Puccini, which took place on November 29, 2024, on the 100th anniversary of the composer's death at La Scala in Milan, had to be performed without an orchestra. Instead of the original program Anna Netrebko, Jonas Kaufmann and Mariangela Sicilia, accompanied by James Vaughan at the piano, presented highlights from “Manon Lescaut”, “La Bohème”, “Tosca” and “Turandot”, among others. The concert will be shown on ARTE concert on December 29 at 5:10pm and will be available on the media library for some time afterwards.
