Madama Butterfly took wing under turbulent circumstances. The premiere (Milan, Teatro alla Scala, 17 February 1904) was a disaster; while a second production only months later (Brescia, Teatro Grande, 28 May 1904) was instead a resounding success. Inthe intervening period the composer had made considerable changes to the score, enough that the result qualifies as a "second version". Still other changes were to come, however, as the opera toured in successive productions. The definitive version,which is reflected in this edition, was produced in 1906 at the Opera Comique in Paris and published by Ricordi the following year. Puccini thus invested considerable effort into the creation of his favorite opera - and into shaping the fate of theheroine, herself a manifestation of the extremes of patient waiting and steadfast love. The music is a complete and masterful expression of the pity and disillusionment that surround the figure of Cio-Cio-San: her absolute but misguided hope, herpathetic pretence in the name of love, her miserable demise.
Madama Butterfly ebbe una nascita tormentata. La prima rappresentazione (Teatro alla Scala, 17 febbraio 1904) fu un fiasco. La ripresa, di poco successiva (Brescia, Teatro Grande, 28 maggio 1904), raccolse invece un pieno successo. L'autore avevaintrodotto nell'opera considerevoli varianti, sino a costituire una vera e propria "seconda versione". Altri rimaneggiamenti sono poi attestati in corrispondenza di successive riprese. La versione definitiva, riprodotta nella presente edizione, vennerappresentata nel 1906 a Parigi (Opera Comique), e pubblicata da Ricordi l'anno successivo. Tanta fatica costo a Puccini la sua opera prediletta - e la sorte di Butterfly, fatta anch'essa di attesa e amore eccessivi. La musica raggiunge la misura dipieta e disincanto che sola puo raffigurare l'esistenza di Cio-Cio-San: la sua speranza assoluta e delusa, la sua patetica finzione di un compimento all'amore, la sua misera fine.
