Washington National Opera - Turandot

Opera Commission: a New Ending to Puccini's 'Turandot'

Christopher has been commissioned by Washington National Opera to compose a new ending to Giacomo Puccini's great unfinished masterpiece 'Turandot'. Although home to one of the most recognizable arias in opera, "Nessun Dorma", Puccini died before he could complete the work. Christopher, along with playwright Susan Soon He Stanton (HBO's Succession), will be creating a new ending that gives Princess Turandot the resolution she deserves, while also bringing Puccini's final masterpiece into the 21st century. The new production will premiere at the Kennedy Center on May 11th, 2024.
