Program Notes
Taken from the third act of Puccini's opera Turandot, Nessun Dorma is one of the world's most famous operatic arias, frequently performed by such noted tenors as Luciano Pavarotti and Plácido Domingo. In this arrangement for concert band, the vocal parts have been reassigned to the middle voices of the band, creating a beautiful, rich melodic showpiece.
