    About this Singer:
    A consummate and many-faceted artist, soprano Natalie Dessay has enjoyed a long and exceptional career, constantly diversifying and renewing her repertoire - from dazzling coloratura to tragic lyric roles, from the fireworks of Mozart’s Magic Flute and Donizetti’s Daughter of the Regiment to the most heart-rending and fragile melodies françaises. Born in Lyon, she discovered her voice in Bordeaux while pursuing her dream of becoming a dancer. In 1992 she made her debut at L’Opéra Bastille singing the role of Olympia in Offenbach’s Tales of Hoffmann. Since then she has appeared regularly on many of the world’s leading opera stages, among them L’Opéra National de Paris, Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Metropolitan Opera New York, Theater an der Wien & Staatsoper Vienna and La Scala Milan, winning universal international acclaim for her performances in Lakmé (Delibes), Ariane auf Naxos & Arabella (Strauss), Orpheus in the Underworld (Offenbach), The Nightingale (Stravinsky), Alcina (Handel), Manon (Massenet), Pelléas et Mélisande (Debussy), Lucia di Lammermoor (Donizetti) and Il Somnambula (Bellini). Natalie Dessay is a regular collaborator with Michel Legrand and together they have performed all over the world. She is also a committed recital singer, frequently performing French melodies and German Lieder with Laurent Naouri, Maciej Pikulski or Philippe Cassard. In 2015 she revealed new depths of dramatic and rhetorical insight, making her debut as a narrator in performances of Howard Barkler’s monologue Und at the Théâtre Olympia in Tours, and in Paris at the Théâtre de l’Athénée. The project was so successful that it was revived at the Théâtre des Abbesses in Paris in May 2016. Natalie Dessay is the only French female artist to be awarded the honorary rank of Kammersängerin by the Vienna Staatsoper.

    Dessay´s German is impeccable and her singing - does it need another comment on how sublime it is? Nothing sounds forced or as if it´s even work. It comes easy and sounds like a piece of cake to the queen of coloratura.

    Seen her many times in opera and in recital over the years (last time was less than a year ago). Tiny woman with huge voice projection. Sublime voice but she also has great musicianship and unbelievable acting skills. She really is the whole package.

      I saw her at the Lyric Opera in Chicago some years ago in Lucia di Lammermoor. She was spectacular, despite not being "right" for the roll, as a light lyric soprano. She showed her critics how wrong they were!

  • @vanzofaust

    She had to stop singing (nodes). She has a lovely, naturally splendid voice and is a superb artiste but one can hear that her placement is faulty, the voice doesn't always sit in place, which causes her to force. She often goes 'up' when she goes to high notes (normally one goes 'down' , bringing the around into the mask). Her lower range is not in place. The placement is often too far back and her vocal line isn't great as a result. Listen to Gruberova for technical perfection.
