Puccini never made any orchestral suites from his immensely popular operas. Carlo Rizzi's new imaginings neatly fill this gap (all the best bits without any of that pesky singing …) and this useful album also explores two early-and decidedly Wagnerian-symphonic works that Puccini composed before he 'made it' in opera.
1 Madama Butterfly Symphonic Suite [17'29] arr. Carlo Rizzi
2 Tosca Symphonic Suite [20'09] arr. Carlo Rizzi
3 Preludio sinfonico [9'25]
4. Preludio sinfonico 'original version' [11'10] arr. Carlo Rizzi
5 Capriccio sinfonico [12'11] arr. Carlo Rizzi
