THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies
Synopsis Two of the public's favorite composers, Tchaikovsky and Puccini, die in the midst of their creative stage. The former passes away days after the premiere of his Sixth Symphony (Pathetique), giving rise to controversial theories on the cause of death —cholera or suicide?—, a dilemma that we try to elucidate here. Puccini, in turn, survives a serious automobile accident, to die years later in an emergency hospital in Belgium, far away from his homeland and friends, without finishing his last opera: Turandot.
