Lyrical Luncheon – Lucia di Lammermoor

The Opera Society’s Lyrical Luncheon offers a lovely meal, drinks and socializing and provides, you with an opportunity to learn about Donizetti’s bel canto masterpiece and preview arias performed by Florida Grand Opera’s Studio Artists. Lucia di Lammermoor tells the heartbreaking story of Lucia, a young Scottish noblewoman trapped between family ambition and forbidden love. Forced into a loveless marriage while her true love Edgardo believes her faithless, she descends into madness in one of opera’s most
celebrated and technically demanding soprano scenes. Rich with soaring melodies
and passionate drama, it remains one of the crown jewels of the Italian operatic repertoire.
