Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor (2016)

Directed by Andrei Serban

“Gaetano Donizetti's opera seria live at the Opéra Bastille, Paris on October 14th, 2016”

Drama · 2h 10m

Every morning at dawn, in the Lammermuir hills in Southern Scotland, the beautiful Lucia meets Edgardo of Ravenswood, a mysterious young man with whom she is in love. However, just as in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the lovers are the progeny of two feuding families and do not have the right to love each other. Lucia, a magnificent flower shattered by the violence of a society of men, is embodied by South Africa’s Pretty Yende, a rising star of the opera stage, in this production by Andrei Serban, conducted by Riccardo Frizza.
