DESCRIPTION:
The famous "Humming Chorus" from Puccini's Madame Butterfly, performed by the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra...
As the off-stage chorus hums a wordless, melancholy tune, Butterfly, her child and Suzuki begin the long wait for Pinkerton to come. Night falls. Suzuki and the baby are soon asleep, but Butterfly keeps her vigil. Butterfly continues to wait , as the Humming Chorus ends and morning light appears.
