The production of Madama Butterfly at the Sferisterio Opera Festival in Macerata in 2009 was one of the highlights of the season,
combining elegant stage direction, moving vocal performances and a set design that captured the essence of traditional Japan
.
Under the direction of Pier Luigi Pizzi, who also designed the scenery and costumes, the staging presented a stylized and essential Japan.
Maestro Daniele Callegari conducted the Orchestra Regionale delle Marche with a passionate and precise interpretation.
The production was enthusiastically received by audiences and critics alike. A production of great artistic coherence, where scene, music and vocal interpretation combined to offer a Madama Butterfly of the highest quality, emotionally authentic and visually poetic.
