John Hoomes interviews soprano Erika Sunnegårdh

Puccini’s follow-up to LA BOHÈME exploded audience expectations! TOSCA is one of Puccini’s most dramatically intense yet beautiful operas. Floria Tosca, a beautiful opera singer, suddenly finds herself thrust into a dizzying world of political intrigue, murder and desire. To save her lover Mario from the clutches of the evil Baron Scarpia, Tosca is forced to sacrifice herself, body and soul, for the man she loves. But, as the lecherous Baron Scarpia discovers, Tosca’s kisses can be quite deadly. Featuring The Nashville Symphony.
