TOSCA - by GIACOMO PUCCINI
Tosca is an opera in three acts by Giacomo Puccini to an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa, based on Victorien Sardou's drama, La Tosca. The work premiered at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome on January 14, 1900. Tosca is one of the most popular of operas, famously dismissed by musicologist Joseph Kerman as a "shabby little shocker", Tosca is a staple of the standard operatic repertoire and appears as number eight on Opera America's 2008 list of the 20 most-performed operas in North America...

"Church bells announce the beginning of the day while a Shepherd boy sings a stornello (folk song) in romanesco, the Roman dialect. Cavaradossi, in prison, awaits his execution. For the price of a ring (his last possession), Cavaradossi persuades the Jailer to deliver a note to Tosca, then starts writing a farewell letter ( E lucevan le stelle And the stars were shining.). With the last line (E non ho amato mai tanto la vita "And never have I loved life so much"), he bursts into tears..."
