Giuseppe Puzone (12 February 1820 – 17 October 1914) was an Italian opera composer and conductor active in Naples, the city of his birth.
[3] Puzone made his debut as an opera composer in 1839 while still a student at the conservatory with the premiere of Albergati at the Teatro Nuovo.
He was appointed maestro concertatore of the Teatro San Carlo in 1844, a position he held for nearly 20 years during which time he also produced three more operas.
In 1851 he was also appointed principal conductor at the theatre, sharing the post over the ensuing years with Nicola De Giosa and Paolo Serrao.
It was Puzone and Serrao who arranged the score for the posthumous premiere of Donizetti's Gabriella di Vergy at the Teatro San Carlo in 1869.
