Madama Butterfly – the story coloured with exoticism and in which, as in every genially written opera masterpiece, hero’s individual feelings overrun time and geographical borders and speak with clear speech into viewer’s heart and brain also in 21st century. Working on performance is rooted by the conductor Oliver Dohnanyi and Peter Konwitschny, who is considered to be the greatest opera director nowadays. He was introduced to Bratislava’s audience with the performance Eugene Onegin by Čajkovskij. In Konwitschy direction Puccini’s Japanese tragedy becomes actual – surprisingly actual – message about human relations. Butterfly’s destiny is the result of breakdown of natural, clear humanity with inhuman results of society conventions, valid in our “wise” and “modern” western civilization.
