Suor Angelica, also known as Sister Angelica, is a one-act opera by the renowned Italian composer, Giacomo Puccini. The opera was first performed in 1918 and tells the story of a young nun, Sister Angelica, who has been forced to enter a convent as punishment for giving birth to a child out of wedlock. The opera takes place in the convent where Sister Angelica resides, and the story unfolds through a series of conversations and interactions with the other nuns.Throughout the opera, Sister Angelica struggles to come to terms with her past and the guilt she feels for her actions. She longs to be reunited with her son, but the other nuns refuse to provide her with any information about him. As the story progresses, Sister Angelica’s emotional turmoil becomes increasingly intense, culminating in a final, devastating scene that is both tragic and deeply moving.Puccini’s score for Suor Angelica is characterized by its haunting melodies and beautiful choral arrangements. The opera is a masterpiece of Italian opera, and is widely regarded as one of Puccini’s most beautiful and emotionally powerful works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
