Over one hundred young musicians from the Boston Youth Symphony Orchestras' (BYSO) premier orchestra, Boston Youth Symphony (BYS) will bring to life one of the most popular operas ever written – Puccini's Tosca.
A melodrama in three acts, Tosca is an opera filled with lies, lust and corruption that turns a tale of love into a struggle for survival. Floria Tosca, a celebrated opera singer who has all of Rome at her feet, is caught between two men – her lover and handsome painter, Cavaradossi and Scarpia, a corrupt chief of police who engage in a fierce battle of wills in this stormy tale of desire and deception.
