London
Royal Opera - Madama Butterfly
Eternal longing for a love lost in Puccini's devastating opera.
A standout triple cast includes Elena Stikhina, Hrachuhí Bassénz and Asmik Grigorian as the innocent and idealistic Cio-Cio-San and Saimir Pirgu, SeokJong Baek and Joshua Guerrero as her callous lover. Henrik Nánási conducts.
Puccini’s Madama Butterfly remains a deeply moving – and troubling – story, fatally bound up with the destructive forces of imperialism.
With a breathtaking score that includes Butterfly’s aria ‘Un bel dì, vedremo’ (‘One fine day’) and the famous Humming Chorus, the enduring work is as entrancing as it is heart-breaking.
