LOCATION:Deutsche Oper Berlin\, Berlin
SUMMARY:Lucia di Lammermoor
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Long before the cinematic popularity of Downton Abbey or the Ja
 ne Austen craze\, the ruthless inner world of the British landed gentry be
 came the setting for Italian opera. With his 1835 setting of Walter Scott'
 s successful novel The Bride of Lammermoor\, Gaetano Donizetti created a l
 yrical drama that remains the epitome of Italian Romanticism. Set in Scotl
 and around 1700\, the tragedy is also the most famous example of the trans
 formation of the virtuosic bel canto style into a highly expressive stylis
 ation of extreme emotional states and contains what is arguably the most f
 amous scene of madness in Italian opera. Filippo Sanjust’s production\, 
 with its painted scenery and spotlights\, evokes the atmosphere of an oper
 atic evening from the work’s original era. Michele Spotti\, Principal Gu
 est Conductor of Deutsche Oper Berlin\, conducts the company’s ensembles
  for the first time in his new role. As Lucia we encounter the virtuoso Ni
 na Minasyan\, and one of the most brilliant bel canto tenors\, Xabier Andu
 aga\, returns to our stage as Edgardo.
