[Madama Butterfly that captivated Glyndebourne in 2018]Olga Busuioc, a soprano from Moldova, plays Madama Butterfly. Her pure and innocent appearance and acting, supported by solid technique, create a singing voice filled with ephemeral beauty that perfectly blends with the world of the opera. This, combined with Joshua Guerrero's Pinkerton, who showcases a beautiful, expansive voice, garnered significant acclaim. The setting has been moved from Meiji-era Japan to the post-Pacific War GHQ occupation, with Pinkerton depicted as an officer of the occupying forces. This staging brings the story closer to us than the distant Russo-Japanese War, reflecting many contemporary elements and making the narrative vividly relevant to today's audience. Omer Meir Wellber, one of the rising stars among the next generation of conductors, delivers a fresh and emotionally rich interpretation of Puccini's music.
