Opera in Italy
Opera events in Italy are usually dedicated to the classical operas by Italian composers like Verdi, Puccini, Rossini, and Donizetti. The theaters are from past centuries with an atmosphere that is festive and elegant. The theaters use modern technology, but keep the interior usually in their original design with opulent decoration, red upholstery, gold plated wood carving, and heavy red curtains. Performances are always with a full orchestra. Italian opera houses have no difficulties attracting international stars. Therefore the cast usually includes famous singers from all over the world.

A milestone in the history of musical theatre, "Lucia di Lammermoor" was born from the encounter between the sensibility of Italian melodrama and the gothic atmosphere of Walter Scott’s novel. Director Yannis Kokkos, who originally staged this production in 2003 under the baton of Riccardo Chailly, views the opera as a ruthless hunt in which the victim is driven toward the depths of madness—evoked by Donizetti through the ethereal sound of the glass harmonica. The revival is entrusted to Speranza Scappucci, a conductor well-versed in bel canto, who made her La Scala debut with Bellini’s "I Capuleti e i Montecchi." The cast features distinguished voices: alongside the leads—Rosa Feola as Lucia, Pene Pati as Edgardo, and Boris Pinkhasovich as Enrico—Michele Pertusi shines as a commanding Raimondo.
