Liu, crying, sings "Signore, ascolta!" Liu can bear it no more. She sinks to the ground, exhausted and sobbing. Puccini makes tears of joy and of sadness. Ascolta! was inspired by Puccini"s opera Turandot. A close-up of a girl who is deeply moved as she listens to the aria “Signore, ascolta!” during Giacomo Puccini’s Turandot.
