Very good performance of Madama Butterfly

Madama Butterfly is a very nice opera and this production is very beautifull.Patricia Racette is good as Cio Cio san,a naive and sweet Japanese girl.Marcello Giordani is a bit too romantic as Pinkerton(this isn't Cavaradossi or Rodolfo),but he does a good job.Dwyne Croft and Maria Zifchak are great as Sharpless and Suzuki.The final scene is devastating as it should be.Very good performance of Madama Butterfly.8/10
