Nessun Dorma (from Turandot), Giacomo Puccini

During the vaudeville era in America, the great accordion entertainers such as Anthony Galla-Rini, Pietro & Guido Deiro & Charles Nunzio, often played operatic overtures & arias to the liking of their audiences. The accordion can imitate the singing & the orchestra quite well. Opera appears to be on the rise lately.
