In 1918, she went back to the United States of America, and performed "Madama Butterfly" and "Madame Chrysantheme" (お菊さん) composed by Andre Messager, but the latter got a bad reputation because it was considered as only a rehash of 'Cho-Cho-San'. 1918年にアメリカ合衆国に戻り、『蝶々夫人』とアンドレ・メサジェの『お菊さん』を上演するが、後者は「蝶々さん」の焼き直しに過ぎないとして不評であった。 |
