The 150th anniversary of Puccini's birth in December 2008 provides a very good reason to dedicate a release in the series A Biographical Kaleidoscope to one of opera's most famous composers. This book is another first-class portrait of a composer by author Detmar Huchting. Music CDs: Four CDs combine the highlights of Puccini's musical works with, among others, complete recordings or excerpts from operas such as Tosca, Turandot, and Gianni Schicchi.
