Customer Rating:
Summary: my favorite "beginners" opera
Comment: This delightful DVD has helped me win over a few opera converts. I found it to be visually pleasing and simplistic which in my opinion is a plus. Also Huang brings authenticity to a role so commonly filed with...less believable leads...Not to mention her voice! A must for those new to the opera community, or those wishing to introduce it to others.

Summary: Outstanding production.
Comment: Asin BOOOOF39MA6.
This is an outstanding video. To take excellent singers from Asia and America made sense in this opera .Ying Huang was very convincing as Butterfly, she is a very sensitive singer and actress as well as Richard Troxell as Pinkerton especially the transformation of his character from the first act and the third. The rest of the cast was excellent, very beautiful scenery and very good sound..
I found some of the Japanese's scenes from the beginning of the century in the opening of the third act with the intermezzo music to be gorgeous .I am very glad to have selected this DVD among all selections that I had.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Finest Butterfly
Comment: I was totally enchanted with this colourful production. Having worked at the Met, I thought I knew Butterfly inside and out, but this production surpasses many, if not most, performances I have seen.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Weak soprano
Comment: Very disappointed. The soprano was weak, voice lacked any power - esp. striking in the One Fine Day aria. Acting was stoic. I've seen this opera a lot, and this Butterfly didn't get off the ground.
