Madame Butterfly is a touching love story of a young Japanese woman, Chio-Chio-san, to US Navy Lieutenant Pinkerton. The plot is based on a novel by John L. Long, but the real immortality of the "girl from Nagasaki" was given by the Italian composer G. Puccini. He was shocked and deeply moved by the love story of a beautiful geisha to an American sailor. The image of a loving girl created by the composer has fascinated all fans of opera for the second century. "Mrs. Butterfly", as Madame Butterfly translates, is one of the most important parts for soprano. This image is subservient to real opera virgins, who have not only a beautiful and strong voice, but also actors are able to convey feelings of happiness of first love and the pain of separation from his beloved Pinkerton.
