Madama Butterfly, dromen van een ander leven

‘Un bel dì, vedremo…’ In her moving aria, the Japanese Cio-Cio San – or Butterfly, as she is affectionately called – longs for the beautiful day when she will see her American husband Pinkerton again. However, her loving devotion is not mutual. Pinkerton returns to Japan after several years, but has an American woman by his side. What’s more, Butterfly was rejected by her traditional family for her intercultural marriage. The honourable Butterfly sees her dream of another life turn into a nightmare that can only end tragically. At the end of the 19th century, a real hype arose around Japanese culture in the West. Giacomo Puccini was inspired by the land of the rising sun as it was perceived in Europe and even used Japanese sounds and instruments in his compelling and emotional musical drama. Argentinian director Mariano Pensotti dispenses with all folklore in Puccini’s masterpiece and reflects on the construction of one’s own identity through the eyes of others.

English

‘Un bel dì, vedremo…’ In haar ontroerende aria verlangt de Japanse Cio-Cio San, die liefkozend Butterfly genoemd wordt, naar de mooie dag waarop ze haar Amerikaanse echtgenoot Pinkerton weer zal zien. Haar liefdevolle toewijding is echter niet wederzijds. Pinkerton keert na enkele jaren terug naar Japan, maar heeft nu een Amerikaanse vrouw aan zijn zijde. Bovendien werd Butterfly vanwege haar interculturele huwelijk verstoten door haar traditionele familie. De eervolle Butterfly ziet haar droom van een ander leven veranderen in een nachtmerrie, die enkel tragisch kan aflopen. Aan het einde van de 19e eeuw ontstond een ware hype rond de Japanse cultuur in het Westen. Giacomo Puccini liet zich inspireren door het land van de rijzende zon zoals het in Europa gepercipieerd werd en gebruikte zelfs Japanse klanken en instrumenten in zijn meeslepende en emotionele muziekdrama. De Argentijnse regisseur Mariano Pensotti laat alle folklore in Puccini's meesterwerk achter zich en reflecteert over de constructie van een eigen identiteit door de ogen van de ander.
