does she lack of acting? no. just listen her singing. all imploring, sadness are in the voice. that's acting in opera i think ! Damrau or netrebko's overacting which make their singing unstable isn't proper acting for opera(or at least the best acting). singing first. opera isn't musical.
Are you serious? That was wonderful. Sumi's voice was warmer than usual, and the the high F was fantastic. Sometimes when Dessay gets up there it can get a little screechy, but this F was clear.
Why is everyone going on and on about that high F? She sings with such grace in this aria and her lament over her daughter in the middle section is gorgeous!
!!!!!/ other ones are singing slowly at the last part because they would be squeaking!. she is the only soprano who sings the last part the correct part
! diana and dessay slows down at the last part.. go and check out. she is not squeaking. it is suppose to be like that
I think you all should learn to respect each others opinions. This is one of the most difficult arias to sing so you´ll probably always find a mistake done by the singer while listening to it ;-)
Not the worst, but she didn't really go for the high note but just to touch it with a little bit hesitation / uncertainty...and that makes the note became no good.

An "F" is an "F" is an "F." If it comes out is what really matters. The bad thing is when it does not. A good F is almost by chance.

ok, so it wasn't the best 'f' she ever sang. She's still in my top 3 interpreters of this role

Sumi Jo is great! But the title of the video is wrong, it's called: "O zittre nicht mein lieber Sohn", zittrinicht means nothin!

OMG, that has to be the WORST F I've ever heard.. if it could be called that... a bad sounding squeak perhaps... -_-; she can do better. I hope.
