Passion, hate, lies, treachery, vengeance—here is tragedy at its darkest and grand opera at its most powerful. Their clans have been bitter enemies for centuries—but Lucia of Lammermoor is desperate to marry her beloved Edgardo of Ravenswood, and her nefarious brother will do anything to keep them apart. Tricked into believing Edgardo has been unfaithful, Lucia is destroyed—driven to madness and murder in Donizetti’s riveting romance set in seventeenth-century Scotland. The electrifying Mad Scene, the extraordinary sextet in which the secrets and yearnings of all the major characters are revealed, the meltingly soulful love duet—Lucia’s matchless music and riveting drama make it one of the most famous operas of all time.
