Wonderful Tosca performance. One of the best Tosca inszenierungen. With a standing ovation in the end. Mostly for Salvatore Licitra's singing and acting that was outstanding. Inga Nielsen who was singing Tosca was best in act 2+3, but even in act 1 she was a wonderful actress in her encounters with both Cavaradossi and Scarpia. In act 2 her voice had even more command and she was very much a believable Tosca with a wonderful Vissi d'arte. Sergei Leiferkus who was a wonderful Jago in Munich was less in command in act 1 but a totally believable Scarpia in act 2. Salvatore Licitra was simply the best Cavaradossi!!!
