Diana is truly incredible! I’ve seen several renditions of this performance and Diana is the only one performer to not only sing beautifully, but to deliver excellent acting while singing!
Amazing, musically and dramatically... Natalie Dessay gives a more human but equally effective interpretation of the Queen's character: th-cam.com/video/hqBwe9BCj4A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OVT7SZyeg_hnYiHP
I saw her perform in Munich back in the late 1990s. I had no idea who she was back then, but I remember that after the Queen of the Night aria, there was a 6-minute standing ovation and they had to stop the production because of it. And I don't blame them. I had goosebumps from that performance for an hour.
I was like around 13 seconds: "why does that expression look familiar?" Oh yeah! That was the same look my mother would give me when I was a kid asking "have u done your homework?"
Now that i understand the scene better with the subtitles I know understand what kind of character she is. She's addicted to the power of Magic and will use any means necessary to get it back while telling her daughter she was denied the Circle of the Sun because she was a woman. It's amazing how complex this character is for a villain, even so much as going far to threaten her daughter's safety and loss of everything if she doesn't kill Sarastro for her and bring her back the Circle of the Sun. I gotta say I really wanna see the whole thing now.
I hope you do see a complete performance some day. In The Magic Flute we hear some of Mozart's most wonderful music, vocally and for the orchestra. The overture, by itself, is on a level with the whole opera.
Im not an opera expert but this is truly superb. Her vocal skills and sense of drama are absolutely fantastic. I've not heard other versions of this but I would say that Diana is probably top of the list. Listening to her voice gave me the shivers and touched my emotions ❤
Hi, If you want to listen to another version (commonly referred to as one of the best) here's Deutekom's, my personal favourite! th-cam.com/video/YQpTGKXAxqA/w-d-xo.html
I grew up with other impressive Queens of the Night, but she just made me a new fan! Please, these so long speaches which strain a singers voice so much - and then sing this aria. Oh wow. Just left me at awe.
Wow, i am not a fan of opera but after find this one, I went through many Queens of night, and i totally admire this version is the best!!! So powerful and beautiful voice of the queen ❤
Just recently learned the English of this scene. Never saw subtitles before and am shocked at the misogyny of this work. I'm sure that it reflects the time in German, but still it's sad. This version is my favorite and I love the music and drama of the work.
Браво! Прекрасное исполнение сложной арии, которую Моцарт, как говорили его современники, писал под уникальный оперный голос своей тещи, обладавшей редким тембром голоса колоратурное меццо-сопрано и по праву тёщу можно назвать соавтором Моцарта при написании этой арии. ❤💐 из России.
although the quality of this video quite bad, somehow i feel like this vid has the best sound. i can feel like sitting before the stage and savouring this piece of art
Diana is amazing, the most iconic queen of the night IMO !!!… That said, I’m pretty sure the costume designer for this version must’ve been super in to Babylon 5!🤭
I have seen and heard many different women performing this aria. None captivate the essence of it, both in voice and action, that Diana Damrau does. Most will hold still and face the audience as if speaking to them instead of to her own daughter. Watching Diana is to watch a Mistress of her craft in action as she "shows you how it's done". The coloratura is one of the most difficult in all opera and not only does it flawlessly, but does so WHILE MOVING. That is far more difficult to achieve than she makes it look
Damrau is the best bitch with the perfect pitch! Seriously though, I've watched many different videos of Damrau singing this, but this one includes the entrance of the queen's servants/body guards. The daughter is markedly afraid of them. This sets up the scene. And allows us to see, just before the queen starts to sing, that she lowers her head and raises her crown in a very threatening manner. Just like a cat lowers its head, raises its ears by flattening them, and gives out a warning meooooow before it attacks. Also, I wonder if the audiences of Mozart's time were surprised to see the queen's anger with losing her power and frustration with having to listen to "wise" men.
A good friend of mine looks like Damrau's Queen whenever she puts on her make-up and she's neither a drag queen nor an opera singer. You don't want to run into her in a dark corner.
This woman is the best queen of the night I've ever seen
Pas la seule, mais certainement une des meilleures interprétations que j'ai entendues ! 😊
Freakin' AWESOME!
You must listen kiri te kanawa directs by George Solti, after we'll can talk about!
Yep. She's poisoned with hate and totally demented in a way that sounds great! 😁
@@vgbf3 E" sicuro che Kiri Te kanawa abbia mai cantato la Regina della Notte ?
Diana is truly incredible! I’ve seen several renditions of this performance and Diana is the only one performer to not only sing beautifully, but to deliver excellent acting while singing!
BULLSHIT my mom could do a better job then pussy ass mother fucker Diana after all my mother is the real queen of the night so ha
She's damn scary in this role. She's phenomenal!
wished Ihad seen her in this role on stage 😊😂❤

HER ARIAS ARE ALMOST INHUMAN! AND OTHER WORDLY!
歌っているところの動画はよく見ますが、前後のやり取りを入れていただいてるのは初めてみました。
ディアナ・ダムラウってほんとに素晴らしいです!
私は知りませんでしたが、この公演はディアナ・ダムラウが凄過ぎて、主役がすっかりかすんでしまったとか…
確かにこれ聞いたら、これ見たら、納得ですね😂
Это зингшпиль. Немецкая классическая опера.
Como, es que ELLA no era el papel principal??? Tremenda Diana!
Chills. Her performance matches the story line. It is not a happy bird chirping, but a harsh rebuke. Stunning.
EXATAMENTE!!!!
This translation seems much more accurate. thank you. this is my favorite.
Thank you very much! I tried my best^^
Diana Damrau's voice is amazing even while delivering dialogue
I know… she’s amazing.
Agreed! I’d love to get a copy of the spoken lines in German.
Not only the voice. Great actress, plenty of power
Agreed.
Not only the voice, but the face and body gesticulations and postures.

Она дает задание Памине убить Зарастро.

На мой взгляд, даже рядом не стоит. Уж простите.
another one of my favorites, lucia popp sings slower than here and it sounds beautiful th-cam.com/video/pDUyA-fVie8/w-d-xo.html
A mother’s rage, so complete, so perfect it’s beautiful
This scene kind of reminds me of mother knows best from tangled in a strange way
本当にきれいな高音と響きで、感動しました。ありがとうございます

So powerful and beautiful voice of the queen ❤
How. Is. She. So. Brilliant. I could watch her forever. 🖤
Die beste Königin der Nacht, die ich jemals gehört habe!
ja ich auch!
Beste Luciana Serra
She is the best. Intonation perfect. Tempo perfect. Perfection
An amazing rendition, acted to perfection. ❤
Diana Damrau is the best! I've listened to those comparison videos and she just rules over them all. Damrau uber alles!
Incredible singing. During parts of this aria she becomes the "Magic Flute." 😊
Mother’s song is the aesthetics of anger and madness
Diana D. the best by far! Incredible the power of her voice…
The epitome of the Queen of the Night character.
Danny Chen Diana Damrau. Not just a great and confident singer bit a solid actress as well! Hell, I wouldn’t cross her!
Her voice is incredibly powerful. Her performances always bring tears to my eyes.
Just recently learned the English of this scene. Never saw subtitles before and am shocked at the misogyny of this work. I'm sure that it reflects the time in German, but still it's sad.

I didn't realize fully if I knew the story I'd be rooting for the night queen. I would expect as much though.
Wow! I've never heard her before, but what a voice!! Glad I found this old video!! Brava!!

Меццо же не достают до этих нот...
Best queen interpretation ever. So Strong, so beautiful.
As far as actibg I agree. But as far as singing Luciana Serra is one step above
With zero opera knowledge, the English subtitles have me rooting for the QOTN.🤗
I have no idea what is happening onstage but it involves a lot of shouting in German, so it must be ruthlessly and efficiently awesome.
это реально гениально. Потрясающая игра актеров
Best version ever. Love the mother in this.
Vyděl jsem desítky zpracování ale toto je TOP
Damrau gives a fantastic performance!
As close to perfection as I expect to hear this side of eternity.
No one has ever done it better!!

There’s one that’s worse. She looks like broccoli in that one . I kid you not…😂
Fabulous she is screaming and magnificent. The best queen of the night I have heard

This is the best! I love this version of "The queen... "
Never fails to give me absolute chills listening to this.
shiver down my spine
Spectacular, wooooooowwwww, great actress, great singer, incredible.
Listen to Edda Moser 🎶🎶 😳 👏👏
If only this has a full version

WOW! Just WOW!😲
Even if I do not understand German, I can feel the emotion in it
That's it! Opera is not just singing nicely, you have to get the emotion to the audience as well.
Una maravilla excelente voz 👏👏👏👏👏💞💞💞💞💞💞❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Diana is a class of it’s own! Wow 😲
One scary ass mother
David Lucey : definitely
Eat your hearts out every stepmother and evil queen of Disney.
la più bella scena della storia della lirica
So perfectly done.
I love this woman so much that I faint every time I watch her❤️

Ha una voce straordinaria. La mm
Superb!
Diana D. is the G.O.A.T. ❤
love this!
Fantástica Soprano!!!!!!!
Diana meravigliosa!!!
Ella nació para ese papel.
She just doesn't sing, she acts and interpets while singing at the same time. It's not broken into parts where she speaks, acts and sings separately.
Wonderful Queen ❤️
The control, in her voice! #UnglücklicheTochter
Haircut STRONGLY inspired by the Bene Gesserit of David Lynch's film-Masterpiece (1984) 👀😉
Incrível ❤
Astonishing
When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. 💀
Діана неймовірна, її Королева ночі найкраща. Талан
Muito lindo
Lo dico in italiano...divina.
Fantastich.
