Approved

After an unusual and unpredictable spring, we are happy to be able to invite you to summer opera also in 2020. Opera Bergen is back at Bergenhus Fortress - and Puccini's Madama Butterfly will be experienced, heard and seen between Håkonshallen's wall and the fortress's beautiful green areas.

It is probably only Carmen who has achieved a similar popularity as Madama Butterfly.

The tone language is unmistakably Italian, operatic and "Puccinian", but at the same time Puccini has through instrumentation and use of Japanese musical motifs given the opera an oriental additional dimension. In this setting, the tragic drama unfolds - about devotion and betrayal, honor and love, power and powerlessness.

English

Etter en uvanlig og uforutsigbar vår er vi glade for å kunne invitere til sommeropera også i 2020. Opera Bergen er tilbake på Bergenhus festning – og Puccinis Madama Butterfly blir å oppleve, høre og se mellom Håkonshallens vegg og festningens vakre grøntområder.

Det er trolig bare Carmen som har oppnådd en tilsvarende popularitet som Madama Butterfly.

Tonespråket er umiskjennelig italiensk, operatisk og «Puccinisk», men samtidig har Puccini gjennom instrumentering og bruk av japanske musikalske motiv gitt operaen en orientalsk tilleggsdimensjon. I denne rammen utspiller det tragiske dramaet seg – om hengivelse og svik, ære og kjærlighet, makt og avmakt.
