Tosca - Bayerische Staatsoper

For this new production at the Bayerische Staatsoper, stage director Kornél Mundruczó and conductor Andrea Battistoni don’t shy away from the violence in this score and libretto. The 1970s setting presents the action as Cavaradossi incarnating Pier Paolo Pasolini in his final days, filming his controversial movie Salò.
