Alexander Shelley and the National Arts Centre Orchestra open their season with intense drama and heartbreaking melodies when Tosca takes over Southam Hall in a semi-staged production directed by Joel Ivany. Soprano Joyce El-Khoury—who “elegantly embodies the title role of Tosca” (Opera News)—leads an all-Canadian cast of singers featuring tenor Matthew Cairns as Cavaradossi and bass-baritone Nathan Berg as Scarpia.
