Un bel di vedremo, Maria Pellegrini

Canadian soprano Maria Pellegrini
From Madama Butterfly by G. Puccini
Cio-Cio-San "Butterfly" imagines Pinkerton's return: One beautiful day, we will see arising a strand of smoke over the far horizon on the sea and then the white ship will appear. It will enter into the port, it rumbles its salute. Do you see it? He is coming! I don't go down to meet him, not I. I stay upon the edge of the hill and wait a long time but do not grow weary of the waiting. And leaving from the crowded city, a man, a little speck climbs the hill.

Who is it? Who is it? And as he arrives
What will he say? He will call Butterfly from the distance. I without answering stay hidden to tease him a little, a little as to not die.
At the first meeting, a little troubled, he will call,"Little one, dear wife, Orange Blossom." All this will happen, I promise you this. Hold back your fears - I with secure faith wait for him.

1985

Just seen Katherine Jenkins singing this - where your Comments function is disabled. Of course it is. We are still laughing.

Bravo, Maria. The sweetness is there.
