COOPERSTOWN – Albany Times Union critic Joseph Dalton praises “Madame Butterfly,” which last evening launched the Glimmerglass Festival’s 2014 season, as “at once lush and economic, also imaginative yet true to the original drama.”   The “guiding hand” of Artistic & General Director Francesca Zambello is evident “in most every way imaginable.”
