Puccini’s inventive orchestration, through-composition, and use of leitmotifs, such as the highly recognizable “Scarpia chord,” made it an immediate hit with the public and one of the most frequently performed operas in the world to this day.Ģ01 SW 5TH Avenue, Fort Lauderdale, Fl 33312
In Tosca we can find some of the best-loved arias in the operatic repertoire, such as the beautiful romanza sung by Mario Cavaradossi Recondita armonia, the intense Te Deum in the final scene of the first act, Tosca’s aria Vissi d'arte, and the Mario’s famous aria E lucevan le stelle.Opening at the Arsht Center on March 29, 2014, with an exciting double cast and timeless sets by Ercole Sormani, Tosca is a riveting psychological drama that builds up to one of opera’s most stunning conclusions.īased on a play by Victorien Sardou, Puccini’s lyrical masterwork tells the story of Floria Tosca, a famous diva, who fights to save her lover in a gripping tale of political turmoil and human passion with a devastating end. Musically speaking, Puccini maintains his style of musical continuity, where arias, recitatives, choruses and other musical forms interweave throughout the whole work. It is also one of the most representative operas of Italian verismo, which can be appreciated in terms of a dramatic intensity that is unequalled in any of Puccini’s other operas. This opera in three acts – with Italian libretto by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica, based on the play La Tosca (1887) by Victorien Sardou – is one of the composer’s most famous, together with Madama Butterfly and La Bohème. Tosca by Giacomo Puccini comes to Rome, where the action of the opera itself unfolds, on the same stage where it was premiered on 14 January 1900 – the Teatro Costanzi, Teatro dell’Opera di Roma – and with a production which follows the original design of the premier.
