Madame Butterfly
No other opera in history is as beloved as the Puccini jewel. Is it because of passion between the tenor and soprano? Or is it the heart-wrenching tragedy of ultimate sacrifice made by a mother? Perhaps it is the soaring melodies and colorful use of Japanese folk melodies that intertwine to create one of the most special musical moments in the history of the art form.
Whatever it is, no one can deny the powerful effect this exotic work has on our ears, hearts, and collective soul. If you haven’t seen Madame Butterfly, now is your chance to understand why so many people love opera and, particularly, this cornerstone masterpiece. If you have experienced the power of Madame Butterfly, let yourself fall into Puccini’s world all over again. Better yet, bring someone with you so he or she can “Embrace the Romance” of opera.
