  • Internationally acclaimed German tenor Jonas Kaufmann sings 'E lucevan le stelle' in The Royal Opera's thrilling production of Puccini's Tosca, directed by Jonathan Kent.

    Puccini had toyed with setting Victorien Sardou's 'hit' play La Tosca (written for the great actress Sarah Bernhardt) from the early 1890s, but only began serious work following the premiere of La bohème in 1896. He employed Bohème's gifted librettists Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica to streamline Sardou's complicated plot and give depth to his rather stereotypical characters. The opera's premiere at Rome's Teatro Costanzi on 14 January 1900 was indifferently received by the critics, many of whom disliked Tosca's violence. However, the public loved it and it has remained hugely popular.
    Puccini portrays the idealism of Tosca and her lover Cavaradossi through radiant, expansive music, including Act I's duet 'Qual occhio al mondo', Cavaradossi's ardent aria 'Recondita armonia' and Tosca's despairing Act II prayer 'Vissi d'arte'. Scarpia's music, by contrast, is dark and terrifying - from the demonic chords that open the opera to the violence of his Act II exchanges with Tosca. Jonathan Kent's production, with Paul Brown's stunning designs, perfectly evokes the troubled atmosphere of Rome in 1800 and Tosca's combination of sensuality and religious sincerity.

    artistically sung, with excellent use of dynamics, from Piano to Forte, all with his dramatic masculine sound, I heard him first about 15 years ago in Grant Park Chicago, then later in opera there and thought back then that he was excellent, still enjoyed hearing him. They just Brdcst. this complete performance on radio.

    I'm very glad this came up on YT recommendation as this is one of my favorite tenor
    arias. I must say this performance of Jonas would be considered as good as any of
    the great tenors of the past.

    Kaufman has been struggling with a peculiar middle register for most of his career. However, I find him to be a sincere artist who is always attempting to give us a good performance. Perhaps his sincerity and artistry outweigh his short comings for many of us.

    The performance itself was horrible. The way Mr. Kaufmann sings is roaring and then whispering like he was out of breath. This aria is about the emotion of a prisoner, who will soon be executed, thinking about his lover. Great singers can bend their voices and release the warmth, no matter how big they sing, not yelling like talking to the enemies and then drastically reducing the volume. It's not musicality, it's not acting with voice, it's the lack of proper technique.
