About
The exotic setting of Fanciulla places the opera in California during the 1849-50 gold rush and is one of Puccini’s most innovative scores - both harmonically and orchestrally. It was a great success from the start and offers great opportunities for spectacle as well as requiring a team of singers with great acting abilities. This live recording from La Scala is headed by Mara Zampieri and Plácido Domingo as Minnie and Dick Johnson, under veteran Puccini conductor Lorin Maazel.
