Giacomo Puccini furthered his reputation as one of the leading figures in Italian opera when he composed one of the world's most popular operas 'Madame Butterfly' to a libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa based on the book by John L. Long and the drama by David Belasco. The inspiration for the plot came from an American play by David Belasco which captured the composer's immediate interest when he saw it in London. Based on the heartbreak of Madama Butterfly a 15-year-old Japanese girl who abandons her people and her religion in a marriage to Pinkerton a United States Naval Lieutenant and in a conversion to Christianity the work undoubtedly had greater meaning toits American audiences following the occupation of U.S. troops in Asia during the mid- and late-twentieth century. The story of 'Madame Butterfly' also recently inspired Boubill and Schonberg's musical 'Miss Saigon'.This is the Schirmer edition of the Vocal Score in the original Italian with an English translation by John Gutman.

?Bopping along merrily? is the tempo marking for this ensemble selection telling us that it?s time for some fun. The bubbly fluttering Primo (The Butterfly) and the repetitive lumbering Secondo (The Bear) wonderfully sketch the imagery. Listen for the echoes as Bear and Butterfly play together. This one will have much appeal with sibling teams.

Le Papillon qui tapait du pied-Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) est l?un des plus célèbres écrivains de langue anglaise. Né à Bombay en Inde ce journaliste poète et romancier reçoit le prix Nobel de littérature en 1907. On lui doit notamment les célèbres ouvrages Le Livre de la Jungle (1894) Histoires comme ça (1902) et Kim (1901) entre autres. Rudyard Kipling a sillonné le monde glanant de-ci de-là des mots et des merveilles à raconter aux petits et aux grands. Aujourd?hui encore ses Histoires comme ça enchantent par leur drôlerie et leur poésie ; de délicieux récits d?animaux entre l?Inde et l?Afrique initialement écrits pour sa fille Joséphine qui mourut en 1899 des suites d?unegrippe.Le Papillon qui tapait du pied est un des douze contes du recueil Histoires comme ça. Maxime Aulio s?en est inspiré pour créer une œuvre qui s?inscrit dans la tradition de l?impressionnisme musical français. Le saxophone baryton solo incarne le Roi Salomon fils de David ; les flûtes jouent le couple de papillons ; une clarinette est la Reine Balkis - la Sage Balkis de Saba - tandis que les trompettes et les cornets représentent les Djinns. Les personnages évoluent dans un décor orchestral merveilleux à l?image des jardins et du palais du Roi Salomon. / The Butterfly That Stamped (Le Papillon qui tapait du pied) est une œuvre de commande pour la Fédération Musicale d?Auvergne (France) avec le soutien du Conseil Régional d?Auvergne à l?occasion du 10e anniversaire de l?Orchestre Régional d?Harmonie École. L?œuvre a été donnée en création le 30 avril 2006 au Théâtre Municipal d?Aurillac. L?Orchestre Régional d?Harmonie École d?Auvergne était placé sous la direction de Claude Kesmaecker avec en soliste Alexandre Doisy saxophone baryton.

Puccini est un mystère. Populaire et pourtant méconnu. Médiatique et pourtant secret. Mimì, Tosca et Madame Butterfly, si émouvantes et immédiates, font oublier la modernité musicale de La Fille du Far West ou de Turandot. Car Puccini est un homme de son temps et son temps est le xxe siècle. Siècle de l'image : l'opéra puccinien sera cinématographique autant qu'intimiste.Ce Mode d'emploi se propose d'éclairer ce mystère de l'intérieur. / Voix

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 Opéra 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.
