Im sorry but this isn´t good. What are all those liberties in the music???... I know this was the Met, but this is exactly what they do in Germany which I DISLIKE so much. Among all the crap, doing stops in the music as long as they want and musically kiling the thrill of it. Anyway, have´t found anything but Queen of the Night and Sophiein which I liked her voice. The rest... whatever!
She is vocally PERFECT! I love her voice and she doesn't have the troublesome problems others have with ease of range and coloratura...but I prefer Dessay as the current lucia of choice...she still has the voice for the role and the right amount of tragedienne..diana is phenomenal but i have yet to hear true tragedy in her assumption of this role..
you are very lucky, i've only heard Diana online and since the first time i ever listened her and i wanted to hear her live in one concert. however i love hear her online (at least i can hear her ). she's excellent.
Saw her final performance as Lucia and it was PHENOMENAL! Wish they had that performance available... it was true perfection! In fact, the entire cast was superb!
(And I must randomly say, the Glass Harmonica in the beginning of this song gives me chills <3)
Dessay does not have much voice left after two vocal operations. Stop kidding and mean business.

She's got the best 'il fantasma' I've heard yet.

I saw this opera 2 times, with Irina Iordachescu as Lucia(in Romania), and it was really fantastic! For me she is the best Lucia!

@doperasinger
i agree with your comment.dessay and in my opinion a bonfadelli has the fragile voice to sing this role perfecly.
i hope that diana sings the norma one day!!

i usually love her, but i don't feel this role suits her. personally like Inva Mula better here, a true bell canto singer

Try looking for Irina Iordachescu - lucia di lammermoor! I saw the spectacol myself twice! I felt hypnotised everytime...

Are you kidding?
That's like the number one thing Diana Damrau is known for.
Having a true, full voice.
