Michele Puccini<\/strong>, Giacomo\u2019s father, from 1843 onwards had performed various duties there and also held various teaching posts, until becoming Director in 1862<\/strong>, as well as a teacher of Counterpoint<\/strong> and Composition<\/strong>. Giacomo began his career there in 1868 as a student of violin (Augusto Michelangeli), piano (Alessandro Giovannetti) and vocalization (Carlo Angeloni) classes. Later he was also to attend classes of practical harmony<\/strong> (Fortunato Magi) and organ<\/strong> (Fortunato Magi, and later Carlo Giorgi), and finally composition<\/strong> and counterpoint<\/strong> (Carlo Angeloni). It is noteworthy that Michelangeli, Magi and Angeloni had been students of Michele Puccini. The course was to end in 1880 with a diploma in composition.<\/p>\n

Contrary to the widespread stereotype of a poor and undisciplined student, we now know that the school career of Puccini at the Music Institute was studded with prizes.<\/p>\n

The Music Institute<\/strong> (now \u201cL. Boccherini<\/strong>\u201d) retains many memories of Giacomo Puccini: the piano<\/strong> and the harmonium on which he took lessons<\/strong>, a valuable collection of early compositions<\/strong> (autographs and copies) and some curious notebooks used at the Milan Conservatory<\/strong> (where Puccini continued his studies from 1880 to 1883).<\/p>\n

The Institute also owns most of the compositions of Giacomo\u2019s ancestors, which in 1891 he generously \u201cdonated to the musical archive of the Pacini Institute [\u2026] wishing that this music be safe and under a watchful safeguard\u201d. This far-sighted and generous gesture is certainly to be connected with the success of Edgar<\/em><\/strong> at the Teatro del Giglio<\/strong> and the recognition that the city attributed to the composer.<\/p>\n

The Istituto Musicale \u201cG.Pacini\u201d<\/strong>, when Puccini attended it, was situated in Piazza S. Maria Forisportam<\/strong>, in the premises of the old monastery attached to the church, now the site of the primary school \u201cG.
