Lucia di Lammermoor
If you're looking for a classical evening this Easter season, a performance of Lucia di Lammermoor might be just the thing. Gaetano Donizetti’s highly dramatic opera is a powerful blend of emotion, vocal intensity, and operatic spectacle.
With a blood-soaked bride and a gripping mad scene, Lucia di Lammermoor set the standard for operatic melodrama. In the famous aria "Il dolce suono," the soprano reaches the dizzying heights of a high F, a vocal feat that makes this role legendary.
A co-production between the Greek National Opera and the Royal Opera House, London, the opera is directed by Katie Mitchell, offering a unique take on Lucia’s tragic love for Edgardo and the obstacles imposed by her brother Enrico. With a focus on the female perspective and Vicki Mortimer’s striking dual-stage design, this production adds new depth to the classic tragedy.
Whether you're a devoted opera fan or a newcomer, don’t miss the chance to experience this rarely performed masterpiece in Athens.
