Kalifornien, 1850: Hunderttausende sind dem Goldrausch verfallen - und ein paar auch der Bardame Minnie, bei der sich versprengte Glückssuchende allabendlich treffen. Unter ihnen ist auch Sheriff Jack Rance. Doch Minnie verliebt sich in den Fremden Dick Johnson. Bald stellt sich heraus, dass Johnson ein gesuchter Räuber ist: Der Sheriff will ihn an den Strick und Minnie an sich bringen. Eine Partie Poker soll also über Dicks Leben entscheiden: Hat Minnie noch ein Ass im Ärmel?

Puccini jedenfalls hatte mit seiner „Fanciulla“ eines, hielt das Stück sogar für sein Bestes: Nach Welterfolgen wie „La Bohème“ und „Madama Butterfly“ hatte er sich mit seinem „Italowestern“ neu erfunden. In „La Fanciulla del West“ verbinden sich Ragtime-Rhythmen, Anklänge an Gospel und die Musik der indianischen Ureinwohner mit italienischem Schmelz zu üppig orchestriertem Breitbandklang. Dieser verfehlte seine Wirkung auch 1910 bei der Uraufführung in der New Yorker Metropolitan Opera nicht. Und trotzdem fristete das Stück neben Puccinis großen Hits lange ein Schattendasein - bis die musikalischen Goldgräber loszogen...

California in 1850: hundreds of thousands have fallen for the gold rush – and some of them also for the barkeeper Minnie, at whose saloon various fortune seekers meet every evening. Among them is Sheriff Jack Rance. Minnie, however, falls in love with the stranger Dick Johnson. It soon turns out that Johnson is a wanted robber: the sheriff wants to see him hang and have Minnie to himself. A round of poker is to decide about Dick’s life: is there yet another trump up Minnie’s sleeve?
Puccini certainly held a trump with his Fanciulla, and even considered the piece his best: after world hits such as La Bohème and Madama Butterfly he had reinvented himself with this “spaghetti western”. In La Fanciulla del West, he combined ragtime rhythms, allusions to gospel singing and the music of the native Americans with Italian melodiousness, resulting in a lushly orchestrated broadband sound. This did not fail to affect the audience at the first performance at New York’s Metropolitan Opera in 1910. And yet, compared to Puccini’s major hits, the piece languished in the shadows for a long time – until the musical gold diggers set out to reclaim it…
