KMFA Live Broadcast!
On Saturday, January 28th, KMFA presents the second production of the 25th Anniversary season of the Austin Lyric Opera with Donizetti’s’ Lucia di Lammermoor. This opera was Donizetti’s most popular work, a thrilling masterpiece of classic Italian opera, famous for its “mad scene” that has made the careers of some of opera’s greatest voices such as Joan Sutherland and Maria Callas. The emotionally fragile Lucia is caught in a feud between two families and is forced to marry a man whom she does not love. Russian soprano Lyubov Petrova, last seen by ALO audiences as Gilda in Rigoletto, stars as Lucia.This live broadcast begins at 7pm with KMFA hosts Dianne Donovan and Lauren Rico.
