  • The Royal Opera discuss why Puccini's great opera fully encapsulates the world of opera with music, drama and storytelling.
    The Royal Opera's Tosca will be relayed in cinemas across the world on 15 December and there will be Encore screenings on 19 January 2022. Find your nearest screening: www.roh.org.uk/cinemas/produc...
    Puccini's Tosca is one of the best loved operas in the repertory. From the demonic chords with which it famously begins to the violent twist of its shock ending, the tension never lets up for a moment.
    Into the romantic world of an idealistic painter, Cavaradossi, and his sensuous lover Tosca comes the malevolence of Baron Scarpia, Chief of Police, with fatal results. Jonathan Kent’s taut and intense production with Paul Brown’s historically charged designs wonderfully evokes the dangerous atmosphere of Rome in 1800, where love and evil come - thrillingly - face to face.

      ????? Look through the trailer again. There's NOT A SINGLE case of someone "singing with mask"!!! There are some people with masks, but that's only in a rehearsal, and they're not singing. A part of a rehearsal does show some of the singers with masks, but it's clearly only concerned with positioning on stage. The singers when singing are always shown unmasked.
      This seems a classic example of how people allow their own prejudices and obsessions to disrupt their vision of reality - and see unreality instead.

      Their talented singers aren't going to risk their health because someone as ignorant as you doesn't like them wearing masks. Are you insane? Do you not care if these wonderful performers get sick? Shame on you. Keep your uneducated thoughts to yourself.
