Additional Tosca Resources

First rehearsal with the FGO men was great!

And revealed the usefulness of a few more resources!

Act 1 Spoken Latin in Rhythm (Men)

Act 1 Spoken Latin in Rhythm (Women)

YouTube links:

End of Act 1 with Latin  (Start about 1:50)

Another Act 1 with Latin  (So I can fan girl over Bryn Terfel... again around 1:55)

Tutta qui cantoria (Act 1)

Sale Ascende (Act 2)  This recording has its strengths and *weaknesses* but it is stand-alone instead of with orchestra and Scarpia so it is considerably easier to hear the chorus part than when it is off-stage and background.  Italian diction is also native so imitate-able -- cannot say the same for tone quality and intonation... :/

Another Sale Ascende (Another stand alone... very different but interesting....)

Standard Sale in background
