Daniele GattiAbout
Giacomo Puccini’s much-loved opera Tosca contains some of his most famous lyrical arias. It is also a powerful and tragic theatre piece set in politically dangerous times featuring moments of courage and romantic tenderness. The expressive force of its narrative and the power of Puccini’s strikingly inventive score has made it one of the most frequently staged operas of all time. Daniele Gatti conducts this live performance from Maggio Musicale Fiorentino with a cast acclaimed for its impressive vocal and dramatic characterisation.
This release of Puccini’s dramatic opera Tosca is the audio version of a video production released on the Dynamic label in February 2025 (DVD: DYN38057 / Blu-ray: 58057).
Recorded live at Maggio Musicale Fiorentino Theatre in 2024, the audiovisual version was acclaimed in operaramblings: ‘[Vanessa] Goikoetxea is a very good Tosca. Vocally she’s got the chops and her characterisation is nicely balanced. …Piero Pretti is a good match as Cavaradossi. He’s always solid and occasionally has that rare Italian tenor frisson that makes the hairs on your neck stand up. …the chorus and orchestra are excellent with Daniele Gatti giving a full-blooded reading of the score.’
Daniele Gatti is the chief conductor of the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden. He has held prestigious roles at important musical institutions including the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestre National de France, Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, Teatro Comunale di Bologna, Opernhaus Zürich and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Amsterdam. Gatti served as chief conductor at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino from 2022 to 2024, conducting numerous productions including Orphée et Eurydice, Ariadne auf Naxos, Il barbiere di Siviglia, Don Carlo, The Rake’s Progress, Pulcinella, Falstaff, Don Pasquale, Tosca, Madama Butterfly and the complete Tchaikovsky symphonies.
