About

Nikolaus Lehnhoff’s Hollywood-style production updates this Wild West story to the capitalist culture of Wall Street, perfectly reflecting Puccini’s innovatory spirit.

In a new angle on the age-old love triangle theme, corrupt Sheriff Jack Rance (Lucio Gallo) and charismatic criminal Dick Johnson (Zoran Todorovich) vie for the love of glamorous blonde and devout Christian Minnie (Eva-Maria Westbroek), finding her way in a man’s world.

Carlo Rizzi’s idiomatic conducting draws excellent singing from the large cast and fine playing from the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra.

Filmed in High Definition and recorded in true surround sound.
