In 'Tosca', Puccini explored the dark side of human emotion, a marked change from the late-Romantic sentimentality of 'La Boheme'.

They are relatively short, none of them lasting more than three minutes, as they are designed not to interrupt the momentum. Besides these solos, the soprano and the tenor participate in two effective love duets, one in the first act, the other in the last. The...
