Summary/Abstract: The present study concerns the song work of the composer Giacomo Puccini (1858 – 1924) – a little-known part of his legacy. The author of this research is the first tenor performer of Puccini‘s songs in Bulgaria (since 1996) and has repeatedly presented them on the concert podium (1996, 2010, 2011, 2018, 2020, 2021, 2022). From this position, the research interest is directed towards examining the songs in the context of the composer‘s entire work. The chronology and history of creation of the works is traced and their presentation is reflected upon. The connection between the composer‘s operatic and vocal work is brought out through the eyes of the opera performer.
