At the age of 61, Joan sings Quando Rapito In Estasi from Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor, still managing two amazing high Ds in this cabaletta.

  • Did Devia sang in the same production? (instead of Sutherland obviously..)

  • This is the Met's old production of Lucia, I believe Devia has sung Lucia at the Met before but whether it was in this particular production I have no idea :D

  • She did great even at that ripe age. I bet just a few of the current sopranos will ever get there. She will be missed. The world of opera has lost yet another great.

  • remember you critical bitches, she had four more hours of singing ahead, maybe she didnt feel top notch that night plus her immense reputation, and critical bitches like you in the audience. etc then two high D's in the first ten minutes...then another later on ....so F-----you

  • her sound on the top notes was a little too brassy for my taste

  • @Babs22h

    Really? Where are these clips? Joan was never booed in her entire career. Why so much hate? Why the ignorance. Clearly, you never heard her live. You're probably some Lady Gaga mental posting nonsense to get attention......

  • @Sutherland2 "sing well every time"???

    they have clips of her being boo'ed off stage etc...

  • Of course she's great! She was never ANYTHING but great.  Joan's standards were very high and she never fell below her best. Today's sopranos should take note. It's easy to be elevated by the press --- much more difficult to SUSTAIN a CAREER, sing well every time, establish standards, give your ALL. I wonder how long the current crop of so-called coloraturas will be around......

  • Even at 61, she was still beyond compare in this extremely difficult coloratura piece.

  • even at the age 61 she rocked it.....look at (I mean listen to) the sopranos nowadays ....yuck!
