An Opera Audiences Loved

Composer Puccini was only 30 years old when he took on this project; he was determined to set it in realism through the music. Although the opening of Tosca in 1900 was not well-received by critics, the audiences loved it. This was one of the first operas to feature dark and violent scenes, including the ending. The critics were not sure if this was a good idea. The play version was specifically written for French actress Sarah Bernhardt. It was believed that she was the only person who could have managed the role’s intense dramatics.
