After Tosca (2019), which marked Puccini’s entry into its repertoire, the Festival celebrates the centenary of the composer’s death this year by putting on his ‘Japanese tragedy’ Madame Butterfly: the cruel story of a vulnerable but strong and wilful heroine, driven by her blind perseverance to ritual suicide. By enveloping her with a bright lyricism and a supremely refined orchestration, Puccini reaches the heart of his artistic identity – reminding us of the real pleasure of tears. We have here a truth far from all verismo, according to Andrea Breth who suggests that everything in this work is a matter of perception and artifice: the relationship between the other singers and Butterfly, between Puccini together with his librettists and Japan, and between audiences and the opera. Conducting the orchestra of the Opéra de Lyon, Daniele Rustioni offers the finest of backdrops to Ermonela Jaho, whose rare combination of force and delicacy has made her a go-to choice in this wonderful yet harrowing role, in which she is making her prized debut in Aix.

English

Après Tosca (2019), qui avait marqué l’entrée de Puccini à son répertoire, le Festival célèbre le centenaire de la mort du compositeur en programmant cette année sa « tragédie japonaise » Madama Butterfly : le parcours empreint de cruauté d’une héroïne vulnérable mais frémissant de force et de volonté, qu’une constance aveugle contraint au suicide rituel. En l’enveloppant d’un lyrisme solaire et d’une orchestration suprêmement raffinée, Puccini atteint le cœur de son identité artistique – nous rappelant le plaisir vrai des larmes. Une vérité loin de tout vérisme selon Andrea Breth, qui suggère que tout, dans cette œuvre, est affaire de regard et d’artifice : la relation des personnages à Butterfly, de Puccini et ses librettistes au Japon et des spectateurs à l’opéra. À la tête des forces de l’Opéra de Lyon, Daniele Rustioni offre le plus beau des écrins à Ermonela Jaho, qu’un alliage rare de vaillance et de délicatesse a imposée comme référence dans ce rôle admirable et crucifiant par lequel elle fait des débuts attendus à Aix.
