One of opera’s most beautiful yet tragic mothers is Cio-Cio-san from Puccini's Madame Butterfly. In this scene, she awaits her lover in a state of vigil alongside her young child. The brilliant a cappella group Accent joins us for this bittersweet jazz-inflected reimagining.

— Greg Anderson & Elizabeth Joy Roe
