Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor
Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor

Renato Bruson (Enrico Ashton); Mariella Devia (Lucia); Vincenzo La Scola (Sir Edgardo); Marco Berti (Lord Arturo Bucklaw)

Donizetti's great tragedy is his undisputed masterpiece of melancholic romanticism, with the doomed love between Lucia and Edgardo retold from Sir Walter Scott's novel The Bride of Lammermoor. The 1992 production heightens the story’s powerful libretto with its dramatic visual design and first class musical performances.

"Pier' Alli, the producer-designer explores a poetically Romanticised view of decaying, mist-ringed Scottish castles which in its consciously old-fashioned way chimes well with the gently singer-supportive conducting of Stefano Ranzani. The principals are all Italian and while on paper this may not be a dream cast, in practice the blend and stylistic know-how of the voices turn out extremely well." (BBC Music Magazine)
