Gaetano Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor [Double Album]
This Double Album from Fone features Zubin Mehta conducting the Orchestra e Coro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in a performance of Gaetano Donizetti's Luci di Lammermoor. It features over 2 hours of musical performances in Stereo DSD.
With Lucia di Lammermoor, Donizetti made his breakthrough in the genre of tragic melodrama in 1835. Until then he had been more successful with comical bel canto operas in the tradition of Rossini.
The plot of Lucia is based on the then highly successful novel The Bride of Lammermoor by the Scottish writer Walter Scott. Lucia and Edgar, the young descendants of two warring Scottish noble families, are secretly in love and have sworn eternal loyalty. But Lucia's brother forces his sister to marry someone else for political reasons during Edgar's absence.
He can only get Lucia this far with a forged letter. Edgar does not know the background and accuses Lucia of treason. She stabs her groom to death on her wedding night, goes mad and dies shortly afterwards. The inconsolable Edgar follows her to death.
The gruesome material is very typical for the time it was made - the romantic age. Lucia was and is one of the prime roles of great sopranos such as Maria Callas or Joan Sutherland, who have helped the character to deepen and gain acceptance through singing and performing arts.
