Puccini's "Madama Butterfly" is now presented in the exhibition hall Arenum, in the period 28 February - 10 March 2001. In this connection, we have prepared a total concept scenographically and in terms of costume; where everything is produced here in Bergen.

Only Carmen has achieved a similar popularity as Madame Butterfly, which is a tragic drama in the Japanese environment with fidelity, betrayal and suicide. Even someone who knows nothing about music hears that Puccini has used elements of Japanese music and oriental use of the instruments, but without for a moment losing the Italian operatic tone. Here there are more melodies that are easier to remember than in any other opera. Puccini himself believed that this was the opera in which he had invested much of his heart and talent. At least it was the one of all his operas that he himself preferred.

Puccinis ”Madama Butterfly” presenteres nå i messehallen Arenum, i perioden 28.februar – 10.mars 2001.  I den forbindelse har vi utarbeidet et totalkonsept scenografisk og kostymemessig; hvor alt blir produsert her i Bergen.

Det er bare Carmen som har oppnådd en tilsvarende popularitet som Madame Butterfly, som er et tragisk drama i japansk miljø med trofasthet, svik og selvmord.   Selv en som ikke kan noe om musikk hører at Puccini har benyttet innslag av japansk musikk og orientalsk bruk av instrumentene, men uten et øyeblikk å miste den italienske operatonen.  Her er det flere melodier som er lettere å huske enn i noen annen opera.  Selv mente Puccini at dette var operan han hadde lagt ned store deler av sitt hjerte og sitt talent i.  Det var iallfall den av alle hans operaer som hans selv foretrakk.
