Description:

Although "Madama Butterfly" is loved around the world, from a Japanese point of view, it is a work that often makes one feel uncomfortable in various aspects. However, this performance at the Verona Music Festival is known for its reputation as a wonderful performance that satisfies both the eyes and ears of such demanding fans. Butterfly is sung by the famous prima donna Chedon Lins. It would be impossible for anyone not to be dazzled by her true-to-life performance and acting. The slightly indecisive Pinkerton, sung by Marcello Giordano, is also very convincing. Zeffirelli's direction made the most of the vast space of the Arena di Verona, and Oren's vigorous conducting. Above all, Wada Emi's vivid costumes enhance the story. I recommend this performance as a first choice for this opera. Naxos Japan
