    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Die tragische Geschichte der Japanerin Cio-cio-san, genannt Butterfly, die Puccini so bewegend vertonte, findet sich in diesem Buch mit dem italienischen Libretto nebst der an deutschen Opernhäusern zumeist verwendeten Übertragung mit zahlreichen Notenbeispielen. Kurt Pahlen kommentiert das Werk durch musikbezogene Hinweise sowie Erläuterungen zur inneren und äußeren Handlung. Eine das Geschehen zusammenfassende Inhaltsangabe und ein Abriss der Entstehungsgeschichte stellen "Madame Butterfly" in einen Zusammenhang mit dem Gesamtschaffen des Komponisten und seiner Biografie und bieten ausführliche, reich illustrierte Informationen über diese Oper.

    Long description:

    Puccini had hardly finished his work on 'Tosca' in 1900 and seen its first performances when a new potential opera subject attracted his attention during a theatre visit in London: the play staged was 'Madame Butterfly. Tragedy of a Japanese Woman'. At the beginning of 1904, the musical setting of this subject matter was completed - the work was a failure at the world premiere. Thereupon, Puccini revised it into a three-act version, and it was in this form that the opera about the unhappy Japanese woman began its triumphant progress.Apart from the Italian libretto and the common German translation, this edition contains introductory commentaries of Kurt Pahlen who also adds information on the compositional structure and context to the musical as well as external and internal dramatic action of the opera. A short synopsis and a brief outline of the genesis bring the work into relation with the composer's entire oeuvre and life, thus offering a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction.
