Brian Cheney - Tenor

"Though Lucia's mad scene is always the focal point of the opera, it was tenor Cheney who stole the show. With a voice strong yet unforced, he was gripping in the final scene, his voice dripping with heartbreak as he leaned over Lucia's body, gasping again and again “bell'alma inamorata.” Too often this opera's heart-wrenching final pages seem an afterthought; Cheney made them the climax. ...the singular performance by Cheney alone was worth the price of admission."
