Puccini based his opera on the short story Madama Butterfly by John Luther Long, which was dramatized by David Belasco ( Protected content ). And he used Japanese folk music Japanese Bridge in Edo, Lion and Sakura etc. directly to depict Cio-Cio San, a geisha yet innocent girl. Cio-Cio San is given deeper understanding of love and makes her a weaker yet much exquisite life. The composition of the opera is more elegant and light.
