Turandot was written 100 years ago. A difficult piece, on several levels. For me, it is the last opera in the classical tradition.

I saw it first in an outdoor production in Augsburg, Germany, decades ago when I was a young adult. Turns out they are still staging it in the same place! staatstheater-augsburg.de/frei

And for those of you who don’t know opera, “Nessun Dorma” comes from Turandot. The piece that just about everybody has to sing these days if they are famous for some reason, even if they can’t actually sing :-)
