Puccini: Tosca (Soprano Montserrat Caballé, Tenor José Carreras, Baritone Ingvar Wixell, orchestra and chorus of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, Colin Davis conductor, Philips; 2 LPs). This interpretation of Tosca is nothing if not eccentric. Davis' reading of the florid score is rich and clear but systematically undramatic. As the idealistic painter Cavaradossi, Carreras gives a properly ardent performance, but it seems lost on this particular Tosca.

...brought back $150 million in new contracts from the U.S. alone. Through the offices of the Industrial Development Authority, the government agency charged with stimulating industrial expansion, Keating sets up lunch and dinner dates with corporate chiefs and ends up with his cowlick flying, making speeches in a lyric tenor.

...SOPRANO. Her mother is a pianist and a soprano; her father is a tenor and plays the trumpet. Ann Denbow, 21, of the New England Conservatory of Music, grew up in Ashley, Ohio, playing the piano, singing and dancing. Now, after besting 50 other voice students to be the conservatory's commencement soloist this year (with an aria from Mozart's The Abduction from the Seraglio), Denbow has her heart set on an operatic career-but she is realistic about her chances.
