Awards and reviews

May 1980

The great merit of this new version of Tosca...is that the stage picture is so clear, with the words sharply audible from beginning to end...Pavarotti makes an unusually positive and bright-eyed Cavaradossi, by no means the cipher this character can be...Milnes gives a fresh, alternative view - a Scarpia still thoroughly evil but with a hint of nobility, with the virility of an active lover.
