Eva-Maria Westbroek (Minnie); Lucio Gallo (Jack Rance); Zoran Todorovich (Dick Johnson);


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 mans 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.

 

"...a high-powered show throughout..." (The Financial Times)

"The Netherlands Opera's spirited and inventive new production..." (The New York Times)

"...Westbroek is captivating...This endearing portrayal will surely take its place in the great line of sopranos who have excelled as Minnie." (International Record Review)
