I recently reviewed the Opus Arte DVD of Madama Butterfly, with Cheryl Barker as Cio-Cio-San and Edo De Waart conducting. This TDK effort is superior in practically every way. The Opus Arte was by no means a weak effort, mind you, even if it featured an odd stage production by Robert Wilson. This Zeffirelli creation is big, splashy, just the kind of thing you've come to expect from this versatile master. The lead singers, especially Fiorenza Cedolins and Marcello Giordani, are absolutely splendid. I can easily see how this Butterfly could become the DVD of choice among Puccini devotees. Indeed, I've even read comments on various websites hailing this as the definitive Butterfly on DVD. I wouldn't dispute the claim. I could even endorse it…
