Antonio Pappano, acclaimed for his interpretations of Italian opera, conducts an impressive cast led by much-loved soprano Ermonela Jaho in Puccini’s ravishing, deeply poignant opera.

An intense and gripping journey from light and excitement to darkness and self-sacrifice, Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier's stunningly beautiful production is set in exotic Nagasaki. Puccini's music brings alive the birdsong of the morning, the ritual of a wedding and the seduction by callous US naval officer B.F. Pinkerton (sung by exciting young tenor Marcelo Puente) of his young, innocent bride Cio-Cio-San (Jaho in the title role at Covent Garden for the first time).

Conductor: Antonio Pappano
Orchestra: Orchestra of the Royal Opera House
Cast: Ermonela Jaho, Marcelo Puente, Scott Hendricks, Elizabeth DeShong
Composer: Giacomo Puccini
Director: Moshe Leiser & Patrice Caurier
Set Design: Christian Fenouillat
