Fresh Air and Arias with Wimco at the Puccini Opera Festival
LONDON, ENGLAND, June 2004: For opera-lovers, Madame Butterfly, Turandot and Tosca are on the bill at this year’s world famous Puccini Festival (23 July to 21 August) which takes place on an open-air stage at Torre del Lago, outside Lucca and just a stone’s throw from the Villa Puccini where Giacomo Puccini lived, worked and is buried.
