Opening credits

Lucia di Lammmermoor. Ancor non giunse? ; Regnava nel silenzio alta la notte bruna ; Quando, rapito in estasi ; Egli s'avanza ; Sulla tomba che rinserra il tradito genitore ; Qui di sposa eterna fede ; Veranno a te sull'aure I miei sospiri ardenti ; Tombe degl'avi miei ; Fra poco a me ricovero ; Oh, meschina! Oh, fato orrendo! ; Tu che a Dio spiegasti l'ali ; E l'ami?

Sempre / Donizetti

Rigoletto. La donna è mobile ; Un dì, se ben rammentomi ; Bella figlia dell'amore ; M'odi! Venti scudi, hai tu detto? ; Ah piu non ragiono

Amor mi trascina! ; Della vendetta alfin giunge l'instante! ; Chi e mai, chi e qui in sua vece? V'ho ingannato ; La traviata. Preludio ; Annina? ; Teneste la promessa ; Addio del passato ; Largo al quadrupede (Bacchanale) ; Signora, Parigi, o cara, noi lasceremo ; Ah non più

Ah! gran Dio! Morir sì giovine ; Ah, Violetta? ; Prendi, quest'è l'immagine / Verdi
