Description
(“Per d’immenso giubilo” from Lucia di Lammermoor)
First performance 26th September 1835, Naples (San Carlo).
The joy and high spirits of “ Chorus of Wedding Guest” make it a winner performance, the last moment of lightness before tragedy takes over.
Tuba with his sound and his melodic passage turns out to recreate with extreme fluency the most intrinsic characteristic of Donizetti’s music.
