MADAMA BUTTERFLY
Sep 9 @ 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM


MADAMA BUTTERFLY:Puccini
Original Air Date: 04/03/1976
Woitach; Zylis-Gara, Alexander, Casei, Uppman, Castel
SID.19370106
All three of ZG’s Cio-Cio Sans have been on Sirius 76 and 79 under Woitach, 81 under Fulton, though none have made it to Met Opera on Demand (MOoD). She is very solid, but we really need the Stella/Fernandi and Tucci/Bergonzi. Stella premiered the 1958 production and is probably her best broadcast representation. She deserves to be heard in this role.
