Premiered in 1900 with huge success, Puccinis ‘melodramma’ Tosca is a political thriller with a heart-breaking love story. With his gripping opening scene, stage director Michael Sturminger sets the tone for a cinematic, richly detailed Tosca which is set in the Mafiosi world of modern day Rome and which is ‘the perfect thriller reminiscent of Scorseses ‘Goodfellas’ (Kleine Zeitung), a film noir (FAZ). In this production soprano Anja Harteros is a phenomenal Tosca! (Kurier), unparalleled in the world (Der Standard) and Aleksandrs Antoenko is a Cavaradossi of superlatives (Kieler Nachrichten). The Staatskapelle Dresden under Christian Thielemann ‘show again that he is not only a master of German repertoire but also strikes the right note in Italian repertoire’. (Focus)
