Madama Butterfly
Capping off my Friday visit to New York, after Follies and a very satisfying dinner at Joe Allen, I headed uptown a few block to see the Metropolitan Opera production of Puccini’s Madama Butterfly. This is probably the most beautiful production I’ve had the opportunity to see at the Met, with high production values throughout from curtain rise to curtain call. And of course the music is beautiful and every single voice could have sung all night. Even sitting up in the Family Circle, I enjoyed the production a great deal, so much that I’ve ordered the Live in HD DVD. It was the perfect end to a great day in New York!
