I can vouch that this cd is well worth owning regardless of the thousands of recordings you may own of Giacomo Puccini's compositions. You will love this cd.

Bravo. PUCCINI è per sempre................

[@TeachUBusiness]

Just ordered the CD. Listening to piano transcriptions is a great way to further understand the music of the opera---

Thank you for posting this here. I'm familiar with Bayless's work, but didn't want to order the album until I had some idea what it sounded like. It's beautiful, and I'm looking forward to owning a copy.

[@RomanticTunes]

Dear Kevin - You're very welcome. I think you'll love the album. I have two other CDs by him, Bayless Meets Bernstein and Romantica, neither of which touches me like this album. Puccini's sappiness with the added Bayless supreme romanticism, you can't find anything sweeter or more beautiful than that. Happy listening. :-}

The Puccini Album Arias for Piano soared to No. 1 on Billboard Magazine's Classical Crossover Chart where it remained for 18 weeks, selling over 175,000 albums."

Maravilhoso. Preferência de André

[@fxdaemon]

Are these Bayless' own transcriptipons? ANyone knows where to buy them? Thanks!

[@James_Bowie]

Yes and so far, unfortunately, JB has not published them. We live in hope that one day he will.

[@timauger]

Who needs Rachmaninov, eh? Fantastic.

[@mairaleikarte43]

Me., 😍

[@timauger]

Maira Leikarte Well OK, if you insist. But a little variety will do you good.

[@mairaleikarte43]

@@timauger I'm joking, just taking things literary. This is beyond amazing. A miraculous performance really. 💥🚀

[@timauger]

Maira Leikarte it’s a bit soupy but those Puccini tunes really get to you. They do to me anyway ..,

[@LandOnBolts]

Both composers deal with longing! A common trait of the 20th-21th century artist.

私は音楽の英才教育を受けた訳ではないが常に誰よりも弾ける方だった。私は永井由起子先生にとって、30年にひとりの希少な生徒だったと確信しています。

[@highwood12]

I listen to Bayless by Puccini every night and I will get this down pat on the keyboard soon.

[@vincebossi46]

Brava,Bello, ma un eccessivo incedere sugli arpeggi……soffoca un poco la melodia.
