Puccini's Madama Butterfly
Tom Service presents Puccini's operatic tragedy from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, with Armenian soprano Lianna Haroutounian and British-Italian tenor Freddie De Tommaso.
Tom Service presents Puccini's operatic tragedy from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, with Armenian soprano Lianna Haroutounian and British-Italian tenor Freddie De Tommaso as the young Japanese geisha Cio-Cio-San and the American naval officer Pinkerton who callously breaks her heart. This revival of the Royal Opera production by Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier, reworked with the participation of Japanese experts, aims to be "both true to the spirit of the original and more authentic in its representation of Japan".
