There’s a reason why Turandot is at the top of the opera canon. Puccini’s final work mesmerizes with its sumptuous music, from the alluring overture to Prince Calaf’s passionate “Nessun dorma,” one of the world’s most famous arias ever written. Grammy Award®–winning composer Christopher Tin, known for his film and video game soundtracks (Civilization 4), and acclaimed playwright and screenwriter Susan Soon He Stanton (Succession) discuss their compelling new world premiere ending to Puccini’s final, unfinished work.
