    There was a sensational performance of Wagners Das Rheingold live from La Scala tonight telecast in HD to mayo movie world - disappointing audience figures- it was fantastic though - the next opera on there is Tosca on June 10th- this is an ever popular opera and even if you have never been before this one is worth a shot.

    Sounds great - not sure about live shows broadcast to cinemas though.

    I was skeptical when I first started going to them last year and I have seen a lot of live opera all over the world, but the sound quality is amazing and whole way these things are done on screen makes it very dramatic occassion - ok so you are not in the opera house - but when these broadcasts are coming from all over the world this is not possible and its possible to hear some very good international standard opera at a very good price you can by the way win tickets for Tosca if you text the word Tosca followed by your name to 085<snip> avertised in todays Western, so give it a shot!

    It was absolutely brilliant!" did anyone else go to that tosca tonight from Teatro carlo Felice Genoa - Wow that was some Tosca! I've never seen both Vissi D'arte and E Lucean Stell both completely repeated as encores on stage during a performance - Daniela Dessi was a sensational Tosca, Claudio Sgura's menacing Scarpia was phenonemal and I just loved Fabio Armiliato's energy in his Caravadossi - Very traditional production but what the hell.

    So glad we have this channel for distribution of international opera - well done mayomovieworld - the audience has gone up and hopefully it will grow - this was a Tosca that will leave a lasting impression.
