In Lucie de Lammermoor, Donizetti places at the heart of the drama a young woman crushed by family ambition and the clan rivalries of a ruthless Scotland. Betrothed to a political marriage and separated from the man she loves by his deceit, Lucie has only the voice of her soul to sustain her, until she descends into a murderous and fatal madness. A drama of domination, sacrifice, and silenced voices, carried by the art of bel canto.
