Madama Butterfly

Tue 6 Mar - Tue 6 Mar

madama butterfly

By Puccini

 

Presented by Opera North

One of the world’s best loved operas, Madama Butterfly is the deeply touching story of a young woman whose innocent love is rewarded only with betrayal. Puccini’s masterpiece contains universally popular music, including the Humming Chorus and Butterfly’s aria One Fine Day.

This exquisite production sets one of opera’s most heartbreaking love stories in the context of the culture clash between East and West, and combines beauty with unflinching emotional truthfulness.

Conductor: Wyn Davies

Sung in Italian with English titles
