I know that art changes with the times and with the audience's tastes and strives to be fresh and relevant. But, "Tosca" is already a very compelling story on its own. Why resort to nudity and beating when Scarpia is already enough of a corrupt villain? This makes no sense at all.
And the children - how did this violence against a naked woman affect them as she walked face forward right to them? Folks this is NOT OPERA. This is a tragedy of leadership at your Opera Company. TRASH NOT ART
Judging JUST from this Te Deum, I think the visual reflection of Scarpia's web of corruption and violence was excellent in itself, but VERY badly realised. To extend the scene beyond the musical climax was particularly daft. Victims don't just get up and wander off, and anyway, Scarpia doesn't beat women - he fantasises about them responding to him and takes them by force as necessary. The school uniforms were likewise irrelevant to good, old-fashioned police brutality. I imagine the rest of the production might have had a strong impact live, but suspect it horrified for all the wrong reasons!
I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when this idiot director explained his concept to the management and cast. No self-respecting singer should allow him/herself to be involved in such a travesty. Must have been a sale on toilet paper.
Ammettiamolo, la lirica è morta. Assistere a questo scempio è un insulto al Maestro, alla storia, alla lirica stessa. Ho visto l'opera completa, nella scena del ragazzino che per un tempo interminabile da solo sulla scena con quel lecca-lecca, si rasenta la pedofilia. Una vergogna.
Just what we need - a bug-eyed, overacting buffoon of a Scarpia. But he fits right in with this misery. Don't think it's the naked woman crying at the end; it's the audience
¡Excelente producción! El video no le hace justicia. El público, al principio escéptico, se dejó poco a poco seducir por la simplicidad, y relevancia esta producción innovadora que pone en primer plano el elemento más importante de una ópera: la música. Yo pienso que la ópera no es un museo, la ópera está viva y nos habla a nosotros, en este siglo. Si las obras clásicas no se renuevan están condenadas a morir. Si yo quisiera ver pelucas, vestidos del siglo XIX y muebles rococo mejor voy a un museo.
I think you have confused ugliness with simplicity, you want to see trash like this just drive through any city with loud music on your car radio, for me I want beauty more and more beauty!

Penso che il Grande Giacomo Puccini bestemmierebbe in tutte le lingue del mondo con questo SCEMPIO......È UNA VERGOGNA !!!
This is NOT The Puccinis TOSCA. This is a norvegian horror
What a beautiful Te Deum! Can I find the original version on you porn?
I think you said the quiet part out loud. This is horrible; makes me wish the orchestra had walked out.
Benedetta Baroni
