Giordano began composition of his best known opera, Andrea Chénier, in 1894. The libretto had been written by Luigi Illica for Alberto Franchetti, and Franchetti gave the libretto to Giordano. Andrea Chénier was premiered at La Scala on March 1896, and was performed throughout Europe as well as in New York in subsequent years. Andrea Chénier continues to be the best known of Giordano's operas, and the star tenor role has made it a popular vehicle for many performers.
