Lucia di Lammermoor is Donizetti's masterpiece. This production was first seen with Anna Netrebko as Lucia in the theatres. It sets the opera during the Victorian era. Sets and costumes look good. Ludovic Tezier makes for a very scheming ,yet sympathetic Enrico(Henry). The highlight,like in 2009 Met Lucia with Netrebko was the tenor playing Edgardo(Edgar). Joseph Calleja has a good voice and he acts very good too,especially in the final scene. Natalie Dessay as Lucia(Lucy)was the weak link. She is great in her acting ,but in 2011 she was past her prime vocally. Her retirement was in 2013 (I do remember her from 2012 Met La Traviata ,opposite Matthew Polenzani,where she was very weak vocally too). Overall,very good Lucia,though Dessay is past her prime vocally .9/10.
