Giacomo Puccini wrote only a few works for voice with piano accompaniment. Eleven songs were published during his lifetime; others remained lost for over a century. In 2010, a first critical edition of the total of sixteen vocal compositions was presented. Several of them are closely related to Puccini’s operas and had already been written during his studies in Milan. It was this edition that inspired Johannes X. Schachtner to arrange the piano score-like accompaniments for orchestra.
In early February 2023, American tenor Charles Castronovo sang these sixteen songs for the first time together with his longtime collaborators, the Münchner Rundfunkorchester, conducted by Ivan Repušic.
