“Madama Butterfly” (Teatro alla Scala) with Maria Jose Siri
Riccardo Chailly masterfully restores Giacomo Puccini’s two-act version to the La Scala stage, creating a new edition of the original score that offers continuous discoveries in the tragic love story between a young Japanese geisha and an American navy officer. Drawing inspiration from Japanese Kabuki theatre, this magical production delivers a perfect balance between traditional realism and “kitch orientalism” to present the mood, drama, romance and tragedy of this opera.
