Send us wild in Italian opera? This might! (6,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nessun dorma

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'might' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'send us wild in italian opera?' is the wordplay.
'wild' indicates an anagram.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'italian opera?' becomes 'norma' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'italian' bit.).
'send'+'us'='sendus'
'sendus' with letters rearranged gives 'essund'.
'essund' inserted within 'norma' is 'NESSUN DORMA'.

'this' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nessun dorma that I've seen before include "Aria from Puccini's opera Turandot" , "Famous Puccini aria (Turandot)" , "air" , "Well-known aria from Turandot" .)
