AMERICA FOREVER!

Ahead of the event in New York on 9 February at NYU Casa Italiana, here’s a little gift for our friends at the Puccini Festival in Torre del Lago: thanks to an artificial intelligence programme, we’ve been able to restore the world’s only surviving fragment featuring THE REAL VOICE OF GIACOMO PUCCINI!

“I would like to thank Mr Diafora most sincerely for his kind words. I am truly grateful to the people of New York for the enthusiastic reception they have given my works. I accept your good wishes for a safe journey and conclude by shouting: ‘America Forever!’”
