Famous Quotes / Umberto Giordano
Umberto Giordano: "Andrea Chenier plays like an operatic historical novel of the French Revolution. It is not an attempt at a biography of the real Chenier, but a dramatic fantasy based on his life and poems, with a libretto by Puccini's frequent collaborator Luigi Illica."
