Madama Butterfly Puccini

Giacomo Puccini is considered the best-known and most notorious veristic composer, although the melodramatic and exotic nature of his operas makes them closer to the Romantic idea than to Realism. Madama Butterfly  is a tragic love story set in Japan, which gave Puccini ample opportunity to paint an orientalist scene, while social criticism is relegated to the background. The masterpiece will be performed by Teatro La Fenice under the baton of Daniele Callegari and directed by Àlex Rigola. Monica Zanettin, Manuela Custer and Vincenzo Costanzo will play the lead roles. The Venetian opera house is one of the most renowned institutions in the history of Italian theatre, having been the venue for famous opera premieres in the 19th century. It is where the great works of Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti and Verdi were performed. Callegari, an expert in music from the 19th and 20th centuries, has conducted some of the world’s greatest symphony orchestras in some of the world’s most prestigious theatres and concert halls. Àlex Rigola is a Barcelona-born theatre director whose plays have been performed in many European, South American and Asian countries.
