Puccini’s Tosca, based on Sardou’s 1887 play La Tosca, is set in Rome in June 1800. A romantic and dramatic score, it tells a tale of love, jealousy, and betrayal as Floria Tosca struggles to save her lover from the ruthless police chief Scarpia. The work contains some of the most iconic and recognisable pieces in opera, and is full of musical motifs, representing different characters and ideas throughout the story. 📹 “Vissi d’arte” - Angela Gheorghiu, Royal Ballet and Opera | Decca Classics
