Juan Diego Flórez made his debut in the role of Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor in November 2015 at the Gran Teatre del Liceu, in this production by Damiano Michieletto, directed by Marco Armiliato and featuring soprano Elena Moșuc in the title role.

Based on Walter Scott's gruesome historical novel The Bride of Lammermoor, which Salvatore Camarano turned into a libretto for Gaetano Donizetti, who composed the opera in barely a month, Lucia di Lammermoor expresses the romantic love that endures beyond lies, misunderstanding, madness and death. Set in Scotland, the rivalry between two enemy clans is the setting for the love between Lucia and Edgardo, who secretly swear a vow of marriage to each other. The protagonist, Lucia, is one of the great challenges of the operatic repertoire, both vocally and scenically, and is known for one of its high points, when the character indulges to madness.

The Liceu's staging, directed by Damiano Micheletto and premiered at the Opernhaus Zürich, recreates an atmosphere "devoid of excess, dominated only by the sharp, cold glass of a tower, which is both a place of celebration and death", in the words of the stage director.
