San Diego Opera presents Madama Butterfly by Giacomo Puccini, April 26 and 28 at the San Diego Civic Theatre.

Madama Butterfly is considered Puccini’s masterpiece, and “Un bel di,” the most famous aria from Madama Butterfly, is one of the most loved and recognizable soprano arias in the world of opera. Featuring the San Diego Symphony Orchestra led by San Diego Opera Principal Conductor Yves Abel, and internationally acclaimed singers, you won’t want to miss this unforgettable production.

Amidst the cherry blossoms of Nagasaki, a young woman makes a stand to support herself as a geisha after her disgraced father takes his life. Fate intervenes and brings her an American Naval Officer and she falls desperately in love. Unaware she is just a distraction to him, she believes they are married and renounces her religion as he sails away promising to return. And he does return, ready to take their child and raise him with his American wife.  With her broken heart, she must choose to live with dishonor or die with honor.

These performances star the husband and wife team of Corrine Winters (last heard as Violetta in 2017’s La traviata) and tenor Adam Smith as Pinkerton in his Company debut. Maestro Yves Abel once again returns to lead the San Diego Symphony in these performances.
