196 composers
115 operas by 53 composers. This figure includes 21 world premieres and 35 national premieres,
the latter split among Italy, Argentina, Uruguay, France, and the United States.
Approximately 530 concert pieces by 178 composers. This tally does not include overtures or
other excerpts from operas that Toscanini conducted in their entirety; if those overtures and other
excerpts are included within his concert repertoire, the figures rise to over 600 pieces by 184
composers.
