Hi everybody.
I hope you like my "Signore Ascolta" from the opera "Turandot" by Puccini. The story, set in China, involves prince Calàf who falls in love with the cold princess Turandot. To obtain permission to marry her, a suitor has to solve three riddles; any false answer results in death.
In September 1998 the opera was performed for eight nights at the Forbidden City (北京紫禁城), complete with opulent sets and soldiers from the People's Liberation Army as extras.
I did my best to copy that performance.
