Turandot Film by Franco Zeffirelli (1923 - 2019)

The great Puccinian classic, in a film by Franco Zeffirelli

Puccini's last unfinished opera, finished by his disciple Franco Alfano in film, directed by the Italian stage and film director Franco Zeffirelli (1983). A monumental version, which predates its celebrated production at the New York Metropolitan in 1987 and still on stage today. With the participation of a stratospheric cast of singers. The ice princess, Turandot embodied by the Bulgarian soprano, gifted with one of the greatest voices ever Ghena Dimitrova, the slave Liù in the warm voice of Katia Ricciarelli and the hero Calaf in the persona of Plácido Domingo!
