  • Not evil enought xd, but yet awesome :D

  • she also inspires a big respect. 

  • She is the best so far in this role.

  • quel pollice verso può significare soltanto la totale mancanza di anima....!!!!!!!

  • sublime voce, agilità splendida.....

  • meravigliosa..........

  • I love the Kung Fu stance at 4:35. She preceded "The Matrix".

  • Although she's not my favourite soprano, the way she performs scales is fantastic! :)

  • simplemente la mejor

  • me encanta la coloratura de Serra, es bellísima, pero el rol en general lo prefiero por Diana Damrau...

  • I like Diana Damrau's better; however, I like Luciana at 4:37-5:03 better than Diana's version.

  • waoo she is a laser beam!!

  • where is the microphone? Dov'è il microfono? ¿Dónde está el micrófono?

  • I prefer Serra. By far. 

  • @sirdicaudore she is serra!

  • @anzolettilino But of course SHE IS Serra!!!!!!!!!! Who else could be?????? And she is THE REAL QUEEN!!! My comment goes to those that prefer the very good but -in my opinion- much less classy Damrau.

  • My gosh... Esto es increíble... Braaviisiimoo..!

  • This is absolutely fantastic.

  • OK - Saw her at Covent Garden in the role 25 years ago. Sorry but most modern trained top sopranos can do a pretty good stand and sing rendition of these two difficult arias nowadays. Look at Diana Damrau's video to see how a top singing and acting talent can actually make the words mean something even to a non german speaker.

  • @jgadd1994 For me being german I find Damrau a bit too over the top "listen how good i am in interpretation"... less would be more.

  • Che meraviglia!!

  • è fantastica!! è precisissima in tutto ed ha stile e compostezza.. mentre la damrau non è molto precisa ed è molto poco composta.. Luciana Serra è favolosa!!

  • I have listened to Serra and Damrau and am more convinced by Serra. I f ind the direction better and prefer the faster tempo. THe Act 2 aria is Damrau's province.

  • Ya know what? Screw Pamina...

  • THe coloratura part was amazing!!! SO clear...but the rest of the aria...mmmm

  • @MilDarkAngely bravo/brava!

  • Du vinaigre !!!

  • My fave performer of this aria. Such a crystal-clear voice!!! Real coloratura soprano.

    I guess Damrau is too heavy..

  • @StupidFoolLady

    Queen of the Night is meant to be heavier than this.. Diana Damrau has it right. This woman's voice is too light for this role.

  • das ist die konigin der nacht , brava!

  • sie ist die beste!!

    really, she's awesome, I LOVE her voice

    Brava!

  • the best o zittre nicht ever!

  • The best koenigin ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • la differenza molto grande! damrau e migliore.

  • astonish...

  • Personally I didn't like this production of Die Zauberflote. The singers were good, but it was kinda "stale" when it comes to set and costumes.

  • :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O

  • Oh my gosh... this woman is not real... cannot be! Perfect.

  • Yeah, this is a great performance of this incredibly catchy aria - so far this is the only one that I think compares with Dessay (especially her 2001 performance).

  • Scusate, ma c'è qualcuno che ha il coraggio di paragonare la Damrau coi suoi suoni metallici a quella meraviglia di suono e di tecnica che era la voce della Serra? Ma scherziamo!? Parlatemi della Deutekom, della Moser, se proprio volete fare paragoni credibili, non dell'ultima starletta del momento sospinta a gonfie vele dalla pubblicità delle case discografiche.

  • @dessayfan mai stata tanto daccordo con qualcuno!!!!! =)

  • Comment removed

  • Absolutely wonderful, she is one of my favorite Queen of the night together with Moser and Popp.

  • J'ai jamais vue des vocalises aussi claire !!!! J'adore :)

  • la meilleure sans aucun doute et bien loin devant toute les autres !!

  • al metropolitan è stata super brava!

  • la version de cristina deutekom me convence mas

  • Don't compare her with Diana Damrau.

    AND Don't insult Damrau.!

    in my opinion, diana did well in this role actually.

    maybe lots of people will agree my thinking.

    you know, all the singers should be judged by their SINGING

    NOT ACTING u know,

    and DIana acted well actually!

    and also she can speak German clearly because Geran is her native language.

    for this reason, Damrau is better than everyone in this role.

  • Not so quick. Diana has trouble pronouncing her the "i" and "e" vowels clearly when singing, and she cuts off many of the consonants at the end of the words. For example, she sings something like "Nuhma mah" instead of "nimmer mehr." Don't just assume that she has good diction because it's her native language. If you want perfect German for the Königin der Nacht, try Natalie Dessay instead (even though she's French). Her German is perfect.

  • Talk about an entrance!

  • Assintam a ópera todo via Met NY, no seu computador / Watch the hole play in your computer by Met NY

  • la adoro! la coloritura è impeccabile! grande luciana

  • grande Luciana Serra GRANDISSIMA

  • great luciana!!!!

  • perfect hight note

  • This is such a beautiful renedition. However, I do prefer Diana Dimrau in this role but that's just personal preferance.

  • What are you people talking about? Damrau can't hold a candle to Serra in this role, especially this recording...

  • You're damn right!

  • Diana did not show her sadness

  • Comment removed

  • @GermanOperaSinger Luciana seems sad,but damru seems happy and the high tones Luciana make them wow.Damru not so good

  • @cempahuite Diana was not being happy she was showing a crazed expression smile, because the queen is kind of crazy, you just don't know much about acting

  • @GermanOperaSinger Serra is absolutely the best. There is no comparison with Diana Damrau. Serra is the best queen of the night, ever.
