Tosca: Tosca (Dover Full Score) by Giacomo Puccini (English) Paperback Book

Description: Tosca by Giacomo Puccini Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description One of the most performed and recorded operas of all time, this intense drama revolves around lust, revenge, and betrayal. Reprinted from the authoritative full-score edition published shortly after the operas 1900 premiere. Publisher Description When Giacomo Puccini saw Sarah Bernhardt in a production of La Tosca by French playwright Victorien Sardou, he knew immediately that its highly dramatic plot, turning on lust, revenge, and betrayal, was made for opera. When he heard that Verdi was interested in the play, his own interest in the property deepened. It was Puccini alone who ultimately brought the project to fruition and transformed Sardous work into an operatic tour de force. Tosca, with a libretto by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica, was first presented in Rome at the Teatro Costanzi in January 1900. Since then, audiences drawn by its intense drama (Puccini himself referred to it as a melodrama), sumptuous scoring, and two of operas most famous arias Toscas "Vissi darte" and Cavaradossis "E lucevan le stelle" have made Tosca one of the most performed and recorded operas of all time. This finely made edition is reprinted from the authoritative full-score edition printed shortly after the operas premiere. Author Biography In addition to Tosca, Italian composer Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924) created La Boheme, Madama Butterfly, Turandot, and other beloved operas. He was the most popular opera composer in the world at the time of his death, and his works remain standards of the repertoire.
