Superba! La voce si scioglie in un velluto scuro e poi luminoso ! Grande interpretazione senza dubbio e anche scenicamente rende un Ariadne vera e appassionata. Brava
I see that she trying very hard to rise to the level of excellence that Jessye Norman has set for Ariadne...and she's doing a great job of it. If I closed my eyes I could almost swear it was Jessye most excellent...great job. Thank you for up loading this.
Deborah Voigt, her recording with Staatskapelle Dresden and Sinopoli as conductor (from 2001, I think). Now THAT's an Ariadne! She did that phrase in one breath, so wonderfully!
This is my favorite DVD of Ariadne, principally for Magee who gets none of the hoopla that is reserved a number of "divas". The performance has its faults: Sacca is pedestrian--a pity it wasn't Jonas Kaufman; the Zerbinetta is adequate but after living with Rita Streich and Getzy (spelling?) and Gruberorava (sp again) it is pedestrian. Perhaps the production put off the conservative taste of many--I loved it. But Magee is superb. Her first recording was Die Meistersinger, a CD conducted by Barenboim but I bought the DVD which was Wolfgang Wagner's last production at Bayreuth--his second go at the opera. Holl was a disappointing Sachs; while Magee had moments she developed considerably over the years. The production if not a disaster is poor and unimaginative.

So beautiful!
What a voice! Perfect for this role. Wonderful in every way.
I have seen this production several times with Mrs Magee! just magic how she lives this role
+wernerkunz it's an excellent production! One of Guth's best works. She's of course excellent.

Disagree, although excellent, the timbre is not like Jessye Norman's.
They are nothing alike!
Please check out soprano Kasondra Kazanjian, "Tu che di gel sei cinta"

Magee had a fantastic top which Norman never had…
I listened to Emily after hearing Voigt. They are equals. Excellent delivery.
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A Rolls Royce of a Voice.
Gorgeous!
Best rendition. Best Ariadne. 😍
"Du wirst mich befreien" is side-marked on the libretto "in growing ecstasy" and that is exactly how she sings it.
So charming 🎀
Beautiful...
My goodness, I can't remember the last time I heard "Du wirst mich befreien" so well sung. This woman is really good.
Beautifully done!
After listening to the late great Jessye Norman this voice is just noise.
Wonderful!

Great singing but what the hell is this goofy staging.
