First Presbyterian Church of Buffalo
Buffalo, NY 14201
Set in 17th century Scotland, "Lucia di Lammermoor" tells a "Romeo and Juliet"-style saga of warring families and star-crossed lovers. The drama culminates in the famous "mad scene" - quoted in such popular culture references as the movie "The Fifth Element" - and features some of opera's most intense and expressive vocals. Under the visionary leadership of Stage Director Alex Huddleston and musical direction of master bel canto pedagogue and internationally acclaimed tenor Arturo Spinetti, "Lucia di Lammermoor" will be presented in a bold new light, featuring athletic vocals in an immersive and imaginative staging.
