Giacomo Puccini's La fanciulla del West is an opera full of passion and adventure that takes the audience to rough, golden California at the time of the gold rush. In the first “western” in opera history, Puccini attached great importance to a dramatic, constantly evolving musical presentation of the plot. The third act features the famous aria “Ch'ella mi creda.” It's worth the wait
