¡Puccini: Madama Butterfly[Limited Low-priced Edition]
¡Herbert Von Karajan (conductor)
Description
[Machine Translation] [Karajan DVD Masterpieces 2018] 15 titles of Karajan's masterpieces are priced down to the lowest price ever! ( Madama Butterfly ) is Puccini's masterpiece set in Nagasaki and incorporating Japanese folk songs and the American national anthem. Karajan ideally recreates the pure musicality latent in the exoticism and sentimental drama of this work, which easily lapses into sentimentalism, by casting the best, including Freni and Domingo. Poner, a masterful performer, is brimming with ideas and creates a fantastical world of images with rich expressive techniques, including scenes that feel bizarre, such as the appearance of a monk and an oddly stylized Japanese house. dg120 anniversary centerpiece project.
