Madama Butterfly

Thu, Apr 16, 2026, 19:30
Hamburgische Staatsoper, Großes Haus (Hamburg)
Alexander Joel (Musical Director), Alice Meregaglia (Chorus), Barno Ismatullaeva (Cio-Cio San), Ida Aldrian (Suzuki), Aebh Kelly (Kate Pinkerton), Atalla Ayan (Pinkerton), Kartal Karagedik (Sharpless), Daniel Kluge (Goro), William Desbiens (Il Principe Yamadori), Tigran Martirossian (Lo zio Bonzo), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
Nagasaki, Japan, ca. 1900: Pinkerton, a lieutenant in the American navy, has fallen in love with Cio-Cio-San, also known as “Butterfly”. The Japanese ritual marriage ceremony is merely a farce to him – and shortly thereafter, Pinkerton’s “plaything” is alone again, with their child. Three years later, he returns to Japan, but not because of Butterfly. Together with his new wife, he intends to pick up the child and take it to American with him. Butterfly commits suicide. The opera’s world premiere in 1904 was a historic fiasco: the audience at Milan’s La Scala failed to understand the exotic subject. Puccini, however, believed in the piece: “My Butterfly remains what it is. It is the most emotional opera I have written!” He was right: only a few months later, an altered version of Madama Butterfly proved a rousing success when it was premiered at the Teatro Grande in Brescia. To this day, Puccini’s “tragedia giapponese” has remained one of the most popular and moving operas ever written. Director: Vincent Boussard Set Designer: Vincent Lemaire Costume Designer: Christian Lacroix Lighting Designer: Guido Levi Dramaturgy: Barbara Weigel Premiere: 11.11.2012

Sun, Jun 22, 2025, 17:00
Hamburgische Staatsoper, Großes Haus (Hamburg)
Alexander Joel (Musical Director), Christian Günther (Chorleitung), Jennifer Davis (Fiordiligi), Jana Kurucová (Dorabella), Nicholas Mogg (Guglielmo), Dovlet Nurgeldiyev (Ferrando), Siobhan Stagg (Despina), Joshua Bloom (Don Alfonso), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
Seeking to test their girlfriends’ fidelity, two men wager that they will remain steadfast. They subject the women to passionate onslaught, and in the end, the fortress of their faithfulness falls. The men, however, involved as they are in the experiment, failed to reckon that they too might betray their partners and feelings. All this cheating, confusing, lying – to others and oneself – is grotesquely comical and simultaneously cruel. One side is inclined not to think about the new situation (Guglielmo and Dorabella), while the others try to comprehend it to the point of exhaustion (Fiordiligi and Ferrando). The final ceremony seeks to cement the social status quo, bringing this new freedom to its knees. The marriage, however, is only for show, and beneath the surface of tradition, the first cracks appear. Director: Herbert Fritsch Costume Designer: Victoria Behr Lighting Designer: Carsten Sander Dramaturgy: Johannes Blum Premiere: September 8th, 2018
