The 100th Great Recording of the Century adds one further name – Maria Callas – to the galaxy of stars already featured in the series. And the recording, made at La Scala, Milan, with Tito Gobbi, Giuseppe di Stefano and Victor de Sabata, is of a performance regarded by many as arguably the greatest recording of the last century.

EMI Classics is delighted to be able to present Callas's 1953 recording of Puccini's Tosca in a brand-new transfer from the original tapes and as a very special limited edition.

To those of you who know this recording well, we trust you will find this newly remastered version with exclusive additional materials of great and enduring interest. To those who are new to Callas's Tosca, welcome to one of the greatest landmarks in the history of recorded sound.
