I like to believe that his 'Nabucco' is his most famous piece. The piece had the famous 'Va, Piensiero', which was sung by the Slave Choir. People of his time found this piece suited enough to be the National Anthem of Italy. The piece was also sung by ten-thousands of people in the streets of Milan as token of respect when he died of a stroke in 1901. There were more than a quarter of a million people to pay him their last respects.
