Giacomo Puccini: Triptych
Few composers can portray the joys, desires and sufferings of everyday people with such compassionate and complex realism as Giacomo Puccini.
Whether it is greed, grief, loneliness, revolution, his musical depictions make us feel everything in our guts, even if our personal experience is not related to the situation.
Puccini: Il trittico is a collection of three one-act operas, all linked by a common theme: death.
In the cloak, (Il tabarro) he shows the side of death, related to love and jealousy. Perceived and real danger, betrayal and forbidden love
lead to death, caused by overheated passion.
In Sister Angelica (Suor Angelica), we experience the unpredictable side of death, which our protagonist experiences in communion, repentance and purification.
Is there absolution and forgiveness?
Gianni Schicchi presents perhaps the most prosaic side of death. A family, grieving the loss of their wealthy relative, almost completely forgets about death in their greed, but the real twist (of course) awaits them at the very end.
