A favorite Donizetti performance from H_Badger

The Met’s 2022 Lucia was divisive, to say the least, but it was the first time Lucia truly resonated with me.

Top to bottom, the cast was exceptional. While I think the sets needed to show much more wear and tear to truly evoke the poverty of the region, for me the updating really made the story come alive.

Not ashamed to say – I loved it!
