To the Hong Kong City Hall, on the auspicious occasion of the 50th Anniversary of its opening, I dedicate this production of Lucia di Lammermoor.

This is the third production of Donizetti’s most beautiful and powerful work that I have created for Hong Kong. It represents a heart-warming return of that masterpiece to the city’s most centrally located and acoustically magnificent venue, where Lucia was first staged in 1984.

Over the years, I have produced some 60 western-style operas for Hong Kong, most of which I directed and also designed. More than 150 performances were tailor-made for the City Hall Concert Hall stage which, until the completion of the Lyric Theatre of The Academy for Performing Arts in 1984 and the Grand Theatre of the Cultural Centre in 1989, was practically the only suitable place for opera.

For all my endeavours in this most complex of all art forms, I have never ceased to rely principally on local talents in all aspects of production. Together, we have developed a home-grown expertise comparable to the best in the world.

The City Hall has been an invaluable gift to generations of practitioners and lovers of art. It has left an indeletable mark on the cultural growth of our beloved city. Long may it continue to be the cradle and home for beauty and creativity for generations to come.
