1998 performance produced & directed by Camille Coppola. (Acts I & II are preceding video within "Complete Operas" playlist.) Butterfly: Lyuba Shchybchyk, Pinkerton: James Guthrie, Sharpless: Ivan Crespo. Reduced orchestral score by Panizza. A pleasure to work with this young cast and chamber orchestra, and one of my favorite performances. (Only a few seconds camera out-of-focus during extreme darkness at beginning of preludes.).
