Scott Piper: Edgardo

A wicked Scottish nobleman drives his sister to madness and murder in this exhilarating and expressive high-drama masterpiece. Attractive melodies and sweeping orchestration propel a tightly constructed plot – complete with secret rendezvous, political intrigue, and a duel at dawn – towards its astonishing climax: the most famous mad scene in opera. Rousing choruses, mournful laments, notable duets, and a stirring sextet expand the emotions throughout. Magnificently moody, Lucia remains Donizetti’s most popular work and one of the most thrilling evenings Italian opera can offer.  Tickets & Information.
