Donizetti's masterpiece was under-appreciated at this time.

Lucia was only just clinging to inclusion in the repertoire, largely because it was always heavily cut in performance, and therefore not seen to its best advantage.

This cast is as advertised - being a Saturday, the critics did not attend.  Likewise, even the preview gives no clue as to the conductor.

Any other descriptions of the performance would be welcomed - perhaps other venues saw it at a slot earlier in the week, when reviewers might be present..
