La Fanciulla Del West (DVD) - The Royal Opera
ITEM NUMBER 1000001065
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
La Fanciulla del West
, Giacomo Puccini's penultimate opera is based on a play by David Belasco set at the height of the California gold rush. The composer took three years to complete the work, which, for him, marked a new stylish departure. With more modern harmonic combinations and local melodies, Puccini pieced together a far larger canvas than anything he had tackled before.
In this recording, Piero Faggioni's highly detailed staging is matched by Ken Adam's superbly atmospheric sets. Carol Neblett sings the role of Minnie "The Girl of the Gold West," Plácido Domingo is as ignitable as ever in the role of Dick Johnson, alias the bandit, Ramirez, and Silvano Carroli is the sinister sheriff, Jack Rance. Conducted by Nello Santi.
