The DECCA label is expanding the extensive discography of Donizetti’s probably most popular opera with a recording with Zuzana Marková and Andrea Bocelli in the leading roles. The Wolferag picture (first picture of the third act) is no longer really up-to-date in the recording recorded at the Teatro Carlo Felice in 2018.Stefano Antonucci sings the Lord Enrico Ashton with a strong, bright baritone and is able to make a superficially positive impression. With the technology, especially with the Legato, there is still a lot of room for improvement. Ultimately, the role interpretation lacks lightness and elegance. Didier Pieri gives the Normanno with a bright, high-pitched tenor and healthy musical self-confidence. Mariano Buccino and his balsamic flowing bass score with stylistic awareness and good presence. Zuzana Marková, as Lucia di Lammermoor, is of course exposed to many celebrity comparisons. With her somewhat delicate, sometimes slightly shaded coloratura soprano, she offers good craftsmanship. The interpretation lacks the lightness and sovereignty that many of its “competitors have. Andrea Bocelli’s tenor has clearly taken on baritonal colors over the years. Unfortunately, there is not much to be discerned from a stylistic sense: for long distances he acts with pressed speaking vocals and whoever he lets the voice flow, the result is much closer to verismo than Bel Canto. Carlotta Vichi lends Alisa her round, full mezzo-soprano. Marcello Nardios gives the Arturo with a bright, not really treble-safe tenor.

Bel Canto professional Andriy Yurkevych has a good handle on what is happening with conventional tempi. The Orchestra del Teatro Felice Genoa follows him attentively, but occasionally lacks the necessary subtlety, so that the result unfortunately does not go beyond solid craftsmanship. The Coro del Teatro Felice Genoa sounds vague over long distances and is difficult to understand.
