Giacomo Puccini by Conrad Wilson

A biography of the composer renowned for his gift as a melodist.

"Fascinating and fastidiously researchedA fine book, both emotionally profound and waspishly witty."—The Scotsman

"A sizzling new biography."—Herald

"Thoroughly readable and quietly perceptive."—Guardian

On the 20th Century Composers Series

"As a series, Phaidon's 20th Century Composers has brought remarkable variety and a welter of information, both necessary and delightfully trivial. Intended both for the general reader and for the more enthusiastically musical."—The Scotsman

Conrad Wilson was music critic for the Scotsman from 1963 to 1991, and now writes for the Herald. Author of several publications, including a history of Scottish Opera, he was for many years Programme Editor of the Edinburgh Festival.
