Madama Butterfly

Album by Giacomo Puccini & Tito Gobbi & Giuseppe Di Stefano & Gianandrea Gavazzeni & Victoria de los Ángeles

Madama Butterfly is an opera by Italian composer Giacomo Puccini, premiered in 1904. The score blends Puccini's late-Romantic, verismo-inflected melodic writing and rich orchestral colour with elements of musical exoticism to evoke its Japanese setting, and it occupies a central place in his middle-period output following La bohème and Tosca as he developed extended lyricism and continuous dramatic scoring.
