| When lI trittico premiered at New York's Metropolitan Opera in December 1918, Gianni Schicchi became an immediate hit. The Iibretto is based on an incident mentioned in Dante's Divine Comedy. The action in Puccinis Gianni Schicchi takes pIace in Buoso Donatis bedroom in 13th-century Florence, immediateIy after his death, as his greedy reIatives feign grief and search for his will. The mood shifts to anger when the relatives discover that they have been disinherited. They seek out the clever and resourcefuI Schicchi to make a counterfeit will. Schicchi, however, turns their scheme against them, bequeathing most of the dead mans fortune to himseIf while the reIatives, all parties to the crime of forgery, are forced to sit by siIentIy. The aria O mio babbino caro is one of Puccini's most popuIar arias for soprano. Bruno de Simone plays the character of Gianni Schicchi. As ltaIy's finest basso buffo, he is perfect for this role. Puccini compIeted the score on 20 April, 1918, eight months before the scheduled premiere. At that performance it was presented as the third part of a trilogy of newIy written one-act operas by Puccini biIIed as Il trittico (The Triptych); the first two were lI tabarro (The CIoak) and Suor Angelica (Sister Angelica). |
