A true gem in Puccini's oeuvre, Madama Butterfly stands out not only for its moving storyline but also for its lyrical melodies, unparalleled emotional richness, and evocative musical atmosphere.

Cio-Cio-San’s great aria has been performed by many renowned opera divas, including Maria Callas, Maria Agresta, Angela Gheorghiu, Sylvia Sass, and Andrea Rost.

In the summer of 2025 on Margaret Island, the role of the young geisha will be performed by Italian soprano Francesca Sassu, with Szabolcs Brickner, member of the Vienna Volksoper and frequent guest soloist of the Hungarian State Opera, as Pinkerton.
