The opening reminded so much of Manon Lescaut.......always such deep and powerful music from Puccini....to think he wrote this in a single night, so beautiful.....drags all the emotion from me and leaves me a wreck.....I love him :)
It's amazing how master composers can probe deep within us, in places we can't reach by ourselves. Their music elicits powerful emotions that remind us that we live, and that composers long dead can remind us of their magical genius.
@PacRimJim Because, dear Sir, music is our truly essence, of divine order, abiding in our very cells. If you are christian may you remember the Misteryt of the Holy Ghost, the 'Verb', in fact the Living Sound, the Shabd, in more evolved levels of devotion....
ohhhhhhhh.... at 2:37 it becomes so tragic. it makes me so sad.
