Lucia di Lammermoor is famous for the extremely difficult and stunning singing part of Lucia, which star Susanna Phillips will perform. Phillips recently toured Japan with the Met and performed the role of Lucia with the Lyric.
The great thing about good opera is that YOU decide what you think are your favorites, based on your own personal taste, which for me becomes more varied as I see more operas and classical music performances. Forget the opera snobs (and they do not always agree); opera is for anyone wanting a spectacular evening of entertainment. It’s so easy to love opera when the beautiful music soars like Mozart’s Cosi fan Tutte earlier this season at the Minnesota Opera or when you have a star singer like Susanna Phillips in the show-stopping role of Lucia.
