When the COVID-19 pandemic forced the Teatro alla Scala to abandon their planned opening night performance of a new production of LUCIA DI LAMMERMOOR with Lisette Oropesa in the title-role, the theatre instead honored their traditional opening date – December 7th, the Feast of Saint Ambrose – with a televised gala featuring a number of prominent singers performing arias pre-filmed on the Scala stage, without an audience.
Lisette, wearing an Armani gown, sang Lucia’s Act I aria. Watch and listen here.
The Cuban-American soprano is currently in Barcelona for performances of Verdi’s LA TRAVIATA.
