A milestone in the history of musical theater, born from the encounter between the sensibilities of Italian melodrama and the Gothic atmospheres of Walter Scott's novel, Lucia di Lammermoor is conceived by director Yannis Kokkos, who created this production in 2003 under the baton of Riccardo Chailly, as a merciless hunt whose victim is driven to the depths of madness, evoked by Donizetti with the diaphanous sound of the glass harmonica. The revival is entrusted to an expert conductor in bel canto, Speranza Scappucci, who made her debut at La Scala with Bellini's I Capuleti ei Montecchi .
