Her voice got to be so huge the higher it went! She was in very good voice here - especially considering her age... All the fast (little) notes were on point! Good for her at 60 that she still had the High E flat! Her stamina was INCREDIBLE.
Su respiración y el perfecto uso de su diafragma le han dado una larga carrera en el más alto nivel. Considerada como la voz más perfecta y hermosa de la lírica. Voz hermosa y potente a la vez ágil como una gacela.
Arrivare alla scena finale con questo timbro da soprano drammatico..-è un miracolo, oramai padronissima del ruolo si permette di far splendere al meglio del possibile con la caduta finale questi Ruolo da lei amatissimo ...da brividi...non resta che Inchinarsi ...a questa straordinaria Donna e artista. Chapeau!
Her voice doesn't match up with the actual scene where in Lucia is going crazy and losing it. Her voice is just lovable and very captivating that it's hard to relate it to the story that in this scene she is actually losing her sanity.
Of course her voice is lovable she's wondering to meet her beloved Edgardo! The singer is intended to sing in a passional mood. What do you think someone crazy should behave?
@@JoanSutherlandFanthese poor young things who know nothing about the art form in general and Lucia specifically continue to shoot off their uninformed opinions all over UA-cam. It makes me sad that they can’t/don’t/won’t “get” what a stupendous achievement this performance is, and makes me furious that they even dare to criticize it.
@@joshuamcpherson007 Why would she try so hard acting despite the fact that she wasnt good at all i? It means that acting cannot be separated from opera. Use your mind a bit, it would help you.
@@ir3356 Your opinion about her acting isn't a fact, it's just your opinion. That fact is she is a singer, not an actor, but ALL you commented on was her ACTING...no mention of her singing at all. You never saw her live, and never will, so no one cares about your snide remarks. Stop watching Sutherland videos if they bother so much.
@@ir3356 we care because she is historically one of the greatest singers of all time. She is 59 here and still singing this most difficult roles superbly. This role made her a star. Nothing about that can be changed. She is long retired and has left this earth, so her career is written in stone. Maybe go help young singers achieve goals they are seeking rather than tearing down a truly great of the not too distant past. Anyway it’s just a thought.
La Stupenda. An amazing inimitable voice. Such a beautiful human being

Ah La Stupenda!! La voz más hermosa de la lírica!!
The one and only, the incomparable Joan Sutherland.
Even in her late 50s-60s she could sing better than today's sopranos
The fact that Dame Joan was still able to thunder out notes above the staff in her late 50s and early 60s is nothing short of amazing!
She is in even better voice here than she was four years earlier at the Met performances.
UNICA e INSUPERABILE! La cantante ASSOLUTA!!
Makes me so proud to be an Australian :)
Lá se vão 8 anos. Mas dada a sua arte ela estará sempre conosco!!!!

A M A Z I N G !
This is a performance from Sydney Opera House, 1986.
That high e flat is greater than the careers of all our pop stars put together.
And modern sopranos as well
Divina!!!!!!!
LA STUPENDA!!! Insuperable e inimitable en su canto y arte
To only have been there....
No habrá una Lucia igual.... Maravillosa Joan !!!!!!!!!!! el spargi d amaro pianto, con ese final cayendo sobre las escaleras .....Brava !!!!!!!!
This is Sidney 86
We know that

My only complaint are - again - in Sydney she's paired with singers well beneath her status.
Yeah, you would.
In my opinion, Sutherland and her voice held up better than Gruberova.
Damn it she is really bad at acting hahahahah
Sutherland was an opera singer. Not an actor. Understand? Let me know if I'm going to fast for you.
