Donizetti's Lucia Di Lammermoor is one of the most gripping and heart wrenching operas ever written. The possibility for peace between two warring and devastated families, the Ravenswoods and the Ashtons, is shattered by Enrico's stubborn pride, fury and financial desperation. Lucia and Edgardo, two lovers caught in the web of hate and revenge, are torn apart by deception and jealousy.
