Gaetano Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor

Tribute to Maria Callas

Mon. 13 March 2017 20:30

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

It has been 15 years since Lucia di Lammermoor was last staged in Athens (2002, Athens Concert Hall). In honour of the ‘eternal Diva’, a select cast of Greek musicians and the Athens State Orchestra under the direction of Lukas Karytinos attempt at giving a new reading of Lucia di Lammermoor, one of the most demanding – vocally and in terms of performance – Bel canto operas.

Libretto by Salvatore Cammarano
Based upon Sir Walter Scott's historical novel “The Bride of Lammermoor”

Concertante
With Greek surtitles

Artistic supervisor: Aris Christofellis
Musical preparation: Thanassis Apostolopoulos

Athens State Orchestra
Conductor: Lukas Karytinos
