This audiobook is the perfect introduction to Madama Butterfly. The listener learns about the background to Puccini s Japanese opera, the social themes of honour and loyalty it involves, and how it progressed from a surprisingly unsuccessful premiere to one of the central and best-loved works of the international operatic repertory. As the story unfolds, the listener gets to know the melodies which make this such a moving and compelling opera.
