Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Lucia di Lammermoor is a tragic opera by Gaetano Donizetti, loosely based upon Walter Scott's novel The Bride of Lammermoor, and with a libretto by Salvadore Cammarano.The opera is essentially Romeo and Juliet in Scotland. It follows Lucia Ashton and Edgardo di Ravenswood, two Star-Crossed Lovers from opposing houses who are having a secret affair. Then one day, Lucia's brother, Enrico, finds out about the affair, and when Edgardo leaves for France, he forges a letter to convince Lucia that Edgardo has betrayed her, so then he forces her to marry another nobleman, Arturo.However, Lucia is so devastated with grief that she starts to lose her sanity. And when Edgardo bursts in on the wedding, he curses Lucia out for betraying him, and ends up being challenged to a duel by Enrico. As a result, poor Lucia goes mad and kills Arturo in their wedding bed, and then makes her appearance before the shocked wedding guests, singing her famous aria "Il dolce suono" and imagines that she is marrying Edgardo, and then collapses and dies.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Meanwhile, Edgardo is hoping to die at Enrico's sword in the duel when he learns of Lucia's death, and how she died saying his name. Devastated and hurt, Edgardo stabs himself and dies, hoping to reunite with Lucia in Heaven.One of the most famous works of the bel canto period, Lucia di Lammermoor was the opera that established Donizetti's career as a successful opera composer shortly after the 1835 premiere at the Teatro di San Carlo in Naples. Other factors helped, including Gioachino Rossini's retirement and Vincenzo Bellini's death, as well as a large fascination with Scotland's legends and history throughout Europe. Donizetti also revised the score for a French version of the opera, titled Lucie de Lammermoor, one which takes away some characters and changes a few things around.These days, it's a main staple of the operatic repertoire, starting mainly in the 20th century when famous sopranos helped bring new life into the opera. Some of these famous sopranos include Maria Callas and Joan Sutherland, and the role of Lucia became signature roles for them.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Bloodless Carnage | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: 20th-century productions would have Lucia perform the Mad Scene in a nightgown that somehow remained spotless despite the fact that she stabbed Arturo to death before the act even started. See Joan Sutherland◊ and Maria Callas◊, for example. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Lucia di Lammermoor is already dark and edgy enough, but David Alden's 2008 ENO production takes this trope Up to Eleven, with Enrico being an incestuous sexual abuser, not just a Big Brother Bully, and Raimondo, Lucia's Good Shepherd of a tutor, being villified into an oily hypocrite who would give Don Basilio a run for his money! But worst of all, the ending has Enrico snapping the neck of an already dying Edgardo in an Ignored Epiphany moment. | |

Incredibly Long Note | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_44cf7d2c | comment |
Incredibly Long Note: Again, the Mad Scene requires Lucia to sing several high notes to signify her madness and to show off the soprano's skills in singing these notes. And at the very end of the Mad Scene, Lucia sings a long high note before collapsing. Edgardo also has this long note in his final aria after stabbing himself; he must sing a high B flat at the very end, so his role is also very demanding for lyric tenors. | |

Break the Cutie | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: Poor, poor Lucia. After Edgardo leaves for France, Lucia is forced to marry Arturo after her own brother forges a letter claiming that Edgardo has taken on a different lover. To make matters worse, Edgardo curses her and tramples his ring after being shown the marriage contract. This all culminates in Lucia going mad and stabbing her new husband to death before interrupting the marriage celebrations by wandering around in a blood-splattered wedding gown and singing about getting married to Edgardo. And after all of that, she dies of madness. The universe really has it in for her. | |

Downer Ending: And how! Lucia goes mad and kills her newly-wedded husband, imagines that she and Edgardo are going to get married in her state of madness, and she eventually dies. Then Edgardo commits suicide after hearing about Lucia’s death, and it's highly unlikely that Enrico has much longer to live either. | |

My God, What Have I Done? | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_a1b141f4 | comment |
My God, What Have I Done?: Enrico has this during the Act II sextet, and during Lucia's mad scene, when he regrets being so cruel to Lucia. Edgardo also has one in Act III. | |

Karma Houdini: Normanno, the huntsman and Enrico's retainer, is the main cause of the whole disaster, and yet he still gets to live. | |

Big Brother Mentor | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_ab17f66 | comment |
Big Brother Mentor: In sharp contrast, Raimondo Bidebent, the chaplain, has shades of this to Lucia. He's kind and reasonable, and feels deeply saddened when Lucia goes mad. | |

Setting Update | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_af4d6174 | comment |
Setting Update: Some productions tend to update the late-1600's setting quite a bit. Examples: David Alden's production at the English National Opera updates the setting to the Victorian era, around 1840's to 1850's. Barbara Wysocka's production at the Bayerische Staatsoper updates the setting to 1960's Kennedy-era America, and has Lucia dressed similarly to celebrities like Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy, while Edgardo is dressed like Danny Zuko and James Dean. | |

Glass-Shattering Sound | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_baeb2d6f | comment |
Glass-Shattering Sound: While definitely not horrible-sounding, the end of the Mad Scene requires the soprano to sing some C sharps, some high Ds, and an E flat at the very end. And the French version is in the original F major, and ends with a high F note in its Mad Scene. Yeah, Lucia is a very demanding role for coloratura sopranos. | |

Adaptation Name Change | |
| Lucia di Lammermoor (Theatre) / int_dc057cf3 | comment |
Adaptation Name Change: The opera changes the characters' first names to their Italian forms: Lucy Ashton becomes Lucia Ashton, Edgar of Ravenswood becomes Edgardo di Ravenswood, Henry Ashton becomes Enrico Ashton, Norman becomes Normanno, Reverend Bide-the-bent becomes Raimondo Bidebent, and Alice becomes Alisa. In addition, Francis Bucklaw becomes Arturo Bucklaw. The French version changes the characters names to their French forms: Lucia becomes Lucie, Edgardo to Edgard, Enrico to Henri, Raimondo to Raimond, and Arturo to Arthur. Normanno's name is changed to Gilbert. | |

Hallucinations: In her Act I aria “Regnava nel silenzio”, Lucia tells the story of how she saw the ghost of a woman killed by her jealous lover near the fountain. She also hallucinates quite extensively in the mad scene in Act III. | |

Jerkass: Enrico Ashton. First, he plots to end his sister’s romance with his rival by claiming that her lover has found someone else. Keep in mind that Lucia already has a very frail mental state, so this makes her deteriorate very quickly. Then, he forces Lucia into an arranged marriage and taunts Edgardo with it when the latter arrives at the wedding. And even after Lucia goes mad, he gets angry with her and scolds her, terrifying her as she starts thinking that he’s Edgardo. | |
