"Il dolce suono mi colpì di sua voce! …” – “The sweet sound of his voice hit me! …” – When Lucia, having gone mad with disappointed love, staggers bloodied in front of the party on her wedding night with these words, no one will be able to escape the power of her voice. What already roused the spoiled Neapolitan premiere audience to storms of enthusiasm and helped prima donnas such as Maria Callas and Joan Sutherland to achieve legendary performances is still one of the absolute greatest moments of bel canto opera today. The result is a work that feels fully committed to the virtuosity of bel canto and leads the voices into truly heavenly spheres,

Lucia murdered her husband on their wedding night. She loved someone else and still loves him - the one with whom she sees herself united at the peak of her madness and whom she wants to precede to death: Edgardo. But he is her brother's archenemy. Against the background of the disputes between Catholics and Protestants in Scotland in the 16th century, two families engage in a bitter struggle for honor, power and money. Lucia becomes a pawn in this private war. A politically advantageous marriage is planned for them. She agrees to the forced marriage. But the torment of how she is disposed of, how her brother's intrigues deny her humanity, and the unlived love for Edgardo finally not only breaks her heart, but also her soul.
