The new season at The Royal Opera House, Covent Garden is off to a blistering start with a revival of Franco Zeffirelli's classic production of Puccini's Tosca. The show opens with a stunning cast, led by grand diva Catherine Malfitano on breathtaking form as Tosca - her Vissi d'arte moved me to tears, Anthony Michaels-Moore singing a formidable Scarpia, and the world's leading romantic tenor, Roberto Alagna, making a wonderful debut in the role of Cavaradossi. Alagna delivers everything you could possibly ask of a tenor - his phrasing is impeccably musical, his control absolute and he never backs down on the big notes. That's why the public adore him. The production runs in three bursts through to February with each cast as illustrious as the next. Look out for Maria Guleghina singing Tosca in October and Bryn Terfel singing Scarpia in February.
