⭐️ REVIEW 🇺🇸 TOSCA The Metropolitan Opera (07/10/2024) | ❝ Aleksandra Kurzak as Tosca is legendary and verismo personified… Her voice is made for this role, and her acting is undeniably one of the best performances in this lifetime … Kurzak’s soprano is an exemplary force of Puccini’s mastery … Superb acting … She makes Tosca a role of her own … She holds the reigns of this opera’s drama the entire time … Aleksandra Kurzak will continue to thrill audiences in this role throughout her career …
