Summary:
Donizetti's heroine offers everything a soprano needs to bring an audience to its feet in a thundering ovation: achingly beautiful melodies, cascading coloratura and, of course, a mad scene. June Anderson was hailed in The New York Times for her masterful performance of one of opera's most famous moments as "combining virtuosic control with lovely, haunting innocence." Tenor Richard Leech is Edgardo, the man Lucia loves and loses. Marcello Panni conducts.

Percorrete le spiagge vicine
Tu sei turbato!
Cruda, funesta smania
La pietade in suo favore
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
Lucia fra poco a te verrà
Appressati, Lucia
Il pallor funesto, orrendo
Soffriva nel pianto
Che fia?
Se tradirmi tu potrai
Ebben?
Ah! cedi, cedi, o più sciagure
Al ben de' tuoi qual vittima
Per te d'immenso giubilo
Per poco fra le tenebre
Dov'è Lucia?
Chi mi frena in tal momento
T'allontana, sciagurato
Esci, fuggi, il furor che mi accende
Orride è questa notte
Ebben? Ebben?
O sole più ratto
D'immenso giubilo s'innalzi un grido
Dalle stanze ove Lucia tratta avea col suo consorte
Oh! Qual funesto avvenimento!
Oh, giusto cielo!
Il dolce suono mi colpi di sua voce!
Ohimè! sorge il tremendo fantasma
Ardon gli incensi
S'avanza Enrico!
Spargi d'amaro pianto
Si tragga altrove
Tombe degl'avi miei
Fra poco a me ricovero
Oh, meschina! Oh, fato orrendo!
Tu che a Dio spiegasti l'ali.
