Tenor Jonas Kaufmann returns to the Met in a revival of Puccini’s La Fanciulla del West, alongside soprano Eva-Maria Westbroek as Minnie, the opera’s tough yet lovable barmaid. Puccini’s second opera based on a play by David Belasco, La Fanciulla del West received its world premiere at the Met in 1910. Nimet Habachy leads us through the romantic tale, bringing the old Wild West vividly to life.
