Giacomo Puccini voice of Made in Italy in the world

Galleria&Friends after recounting the various aspects-music, librettos, fashion, and places of the heart-in this last meeting with Giacomo Puccini wanted to emphasize his role as an Ambassador of Italianness in the world, when he personally promoted his music through travel and transfers. His marketing skills led him to plan with the publisher Ricordi to appear at premieres at the New York Metropolitan and other major theaters around the world and to devise early promotional gadgets: from autographed postcards to porcelain plates, silk scarves, even posters. We also cannot fail to mention the release of the first 78s, which testify to how Puccini was attentive to the evolution of the music industry and technological innovation to make himself a brand.
