Performer: Ailyn Pérez

Good Butterflys are not that difficult to come by but great ones are very very rare. Ailyn Pérez fits the bill in this revival of Anthony Minghella’s classic staging. 

Benjamin Zander’s meticulous preparation, compelling concept and strong casting make for a shattering experience in the Boston Philharmonic’s performance. 

Returning to the first work he officially conducted as the Philadelphia Orchestra's Music Director, Yannick Nézet-Séguin offers a powerful study in contrasts, supported by a superb quartet of opera soloists.
