In this new production of Madame Butterfly, director Aria Umezawa constructs – and deconstructs – Puccini's fantasy of Japan, infusing the typical Westernized portrayal with Japanese history, culture, and artistry, while giving Cio-Cio-San a new sense of agency over her own story.

Madame Butterfly

Academy of Music

Cuban-American soprano Lisette Oropesa has become one of her generation’s most sought after lyric coloraturas. Highly praised for her seamless voice, precise coloratura, magnetic stage presence, and innate musicality, Oropesa and Bel Canto Boot Camp co-founders, Rachelle Jonck and Derrick Goff, will present an intimate recital of bel canto repertoire.

A unique highlight of the program will be several duets and ensembles featuring Oropesa and the 2023 Guild Hall & Bel Canto Boot Camp Resident Artists. The recital will conclude Oropesa’s week in-residence at Guild Hall, during which she will lead private coachings and a public masterclass with the 2023 Guild Hall & Bel Canto Boot Camp Resident Artists.

The recital is followed by a cocktail reception with the artists in Guild Hall’s Minikes Garden. The reception is open only to those who have purchased a “Recital + Reception Ticket.”
