Description:
Nessun Dorma (None shall sleep) is an aria from the final act of Giacomo Puccini's opera Turandot, and is one of the best-known tenor arias in all of opera. It achieved pop status after Luciano Pavarotti's 1972 recording of it was used as the theme song of BBC television's coverage of the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy and became the famous Tenor's signature aria. This unique arrangement for symphonic band by James Barnes faithfully captures the beauty and richness of Puccini's original orchestral scoring.
