Nessun Dorma
"Nessun Dorma" is a famous aria from the final act of the opera Turandot, composed by Giacomo Puccini. The title translates to "None shall sleep," and it is sung by the character Calaf, who expresses his determination to win the love of the cold princess Turandot. The aria is known for its powerful melody and emotional depth.
The piece gained widespread popularity after being performed by tenor Luciano Pavarotti during the 1990 FIFA World Cup. Its climactic line, "Nessun dorma," followed by "Il mio nome è nessuno" ("My name is nobody"), has become iconic, symbolizing hope and triumph.
