Description
“There has never been a finer recorded performance of Tosca than Callas’ first, with Victor de Sabata conducting and Tito Gobbi as Scarpia. Gobbi makes the unbelievably evil police chief into a genuinely three-dimensional character, and Di Stefano, as the hero Cavaradossi, was at his finest” © Penguin Guide
