  Giacomo Puccini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nonetheless, in 1910, Puccini completed La fanciulla del West, which he later on thought of as his most powerful opera, and, in 1917, finished the score of La rondine, a piece he reworked from an operetta he had attempted to compose only to find that his style and talent were incompatible with the genre.
In 1918, Il Trittico premiered in New York.
This work is composed of three one-act operas: a horrific episode (Il Tabarro), in the style of the Parisian Grand Guignol, a sentimental tragedy (Suor Angelica) and a comedy or farce (Gianni Schicchi).

 Il trittico - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Il trittico (The Triptych) is the title to a collection of three one-act operas, Il tabarro, Suor Angelica, and Gianni Schicchi, by Giacomo Puccini.
Puccini intended that the three always be performned as a set, but today it is quite common to see only one or two performed in an evening.
Il tabarro, the first act, is very dark and brooding, full of the violence and grit associated with verismo opera.

At the end of Tabarro, the baritone Michele has pulled away his heavy cloak (tabarro means "cloak") to reveal the body of his wife's lover, whom he has murdered.

Il Tabarro: opera in one act, libretto by Giuseppe Adami after the 1910 play 'La Houppelande' by Didier Gold, music by Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924), first performed 14th December 1918 at the Metropolitan Opera House, New York, with the following cast:
In fact, although the complete Trittico was given a few times at various opera houses, first 'Suor Angelica' and then also 'Il Tabarro' were quietly put aside and the more popular 'Gianni Schicchi' was teamed with short operas by other composers.
Fortunately, the impressionistic score of 'Il Tabarro' has made its way onto opera house schedules again - not on its own as it's only a good fifty minutes long - but as part of a double bill with Cavalleria Rusticana or Pagliacci, 'Gianni Schicchi', or other one-act operas.

It was followed by the high-spirited La Rondine (The Swallow, 1917) and Il Trittico, a trilogy of one-act operas comprising Il Tabarro (The Cloak), Suor Angelica (Sister Angelica), and Gianni Schicchi (1918).
