In 1889, Puccini saw the play La Tosca – written for actress Sarah Bernhardt by French playwright Victorien Sardou – and immediately wanted to turn it into an opera. However, complications slowed the process.  Fortunately for music lovers, Puccini finally acquired the rights and Tosca – one of the most beloved operas in the entire repertoire – premiered in Rome in 1900. Yes, it’s a 20th century opera!
