Puccini: Tosca (Arena di Verona)
About Puccini: Tosca (Arena di Verona)
Puccini’s melodrama about a volatile diva, a sadistic police chief, and an idealistic artist has offended and thrilled audiences for more than a century. Critics, for their part, have often had problems with Tosca’s rather grungy subject matter, the directness and intensity of its score, and the crowd-pleasing dramatic opportunities it provides for its lead roles.
Puccini: Tosca (Arena di Verona) (2006) is a music film directed by Hugo De Ana and Loreena Kaufmann. At 119 minutes long, it arrived in July 2006.
Fiorenza Cedolins appears as Floria Tosca, a famous singer, Marcelo Álvarez as Mario Cavaradossi, Ruggero Raimondi as Il barone Scarpia, and Marco Spotti as Cesare Angelotti.
In the United States it streams on Carnegie Hall+ Amazon Channel and Carnegie Hall+ Apple TV channel.
It carries a NR rating.
