Vienna to Met: Who’s got the bigger Tosca?
mainThe Vienna State Opera brings back Tosca tonight in Margarethe Wallman’s production for its 600th performance.
The cast has been seriously souped up:
Floria Tosca Angela Gheorghiu
Mario Cavaradossi Massimo Giordano
Baron Scarpia Erwin Schrott
Jesús López Cobos conducts.
There is a real whiff of competitiveness about Tosca at the moment, the more so since it was Vienna that was forced to release Sonya Yoncheva to save the Met’s bacon.
