This telecast offers a rare opportunity to see the legendary Joan Sutherland in the role that first catapulted her to international stardom.

One of the glories of the operatic world, her portrayal of Donizetti’s hapless heroine is a multifaceted and moving characterization. The incomparable tenor Alfredo Kraus is Edgardo, the man Lucia loves but cannot have. (Performance taped November 13, 1982. Broadcasted September 28, 1983.)Naná
