“Madama Butterfly” Oblong Scarf
In the unforgettable ending of Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, Pinkerton calls out to his wife (dead by her own hand), desperately repeating her name.
O a me, sceso dal trono
dell’alto Paradiso,
guarda ben fiso, fiso
di tua madre la faccia!…
che te’n resti una traccia,
guarda ben!
Amore, addio! addio! piccolo amor!
Va. Gioca, gioca.
Butterfly! Butterfly! Butterfly!

History
Puccini’s original version of Madama Butterfly premiered at Milan’s Teatro alla Scala in 1904. The composer was inspired to write an opera about a tragic love between a young Japanese geisha and an American Navy officer after seeing David Belasco’s play by the same name performed in London in June 1900. Puccini’s score includes many Japanese folk melodies, and is one of his most sweeping and sophisticated. It remains one of the world’s most popular operas.
