Description:

Although she was barely 30 at the time of this performance, Renata Scotto was already a well-established artist, having burst onto the international scene at just 23 in La Sonnambula. Here, she combines the youthful freshness of her early years with the insight of a seasoned performer, offering a compelling argument for her place among the great Lucias. Gianni Raimondi, often considered milder than contemporaries like Franco Corelli or Mario Del Monaco, defies expectations—particularly with his explosive Act II denunciation of Lucia. Piero Cappuccilli, early in his career, lends a fierce dignity to the role of Enrico, hinting at the greatness to come.
