Tune in Today: A Violinist’s Challenge (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Antonio Bazzini was a respected composer during the 19th century. As professor of composition at the Milan Conservatory, he taught the likes of Alfredo Catalani, Pietro Mascagni, and notably, Giacomo Puccini. Bazzini’s earlier opera “Turanda” may have inspired Puccini’s masterpiece “Turandot.” Bazzini’s fame as a composer has waned since his death in 1897.

Ries later recalled his hot-tempered employer cursing a
