It is said that, 'Tosca is an opera which must be watched with a handkerchief as your heart may be broken by its notes of sadness.' Among numerous works created by the opera master Puccini in his lifetime, Tosca is regarded as not only a masterpiece representing his pinnacle of artistic achievement, but also a 'classic repertory' of almost all opera houses in the world. It's a fictional story happened in a seemingly real and illusionary castle of Rome, where angels and demons coexist to compose a wonder interwoven with love, politics, hatred and conspiracy. Surely, the opera is filled with classic arias. Recondita armonia and E lucevan le stelle are called the touchstone for tenors while the heroine Tosca's Vissi d'arte is a tearjerker of beautiful melody.
The mysterious Castle of Sant'Angelo emerged on the stage like a dream is a place where the heroine Tosca died for love. Since the debut, the opera has become a great sensation and led to an unprecedented 'Tosca phenomenon': The microblog by opera fans were rapidly spread on the night of rehearsal. Its box office soared after the premiere. Audiences flock to watch the opera.  

The tragic and beautiful music and the mechanical and magic variation of the stage setting can fully vent the characters' inner emotion and exert an impact on the audience's nerves through intuitive feels of soul and spirits. The scientific structure design of stage audio devices will also enable audience to enjoy the best music effects.
