About

Natalie Dessay is a dazzling opera singer. Her charisma, captured on the stages of the world’s great opera houses and in the recording studio, illuminates the opera arias and scenes in this collection. From Mozart’s furious Queen of the Night or Offenbach’s robotic Olympia to Strauss’s flirtatious Zerbinetta and Delibes’ devoted Lakmé … Handel’s mercurial Cleopatra to Donizetti’s desperate Lucia… Thomas’s fragile Ophélie to Massenet’s capricious Manon and Verdi’s passionate, tragic Violetta … Natalie Dessay proves irresistible in repertoire that spans three centuries and a wealth of musical and dramatic possibilities.

Awards and reviews

May 2021

In these recordings, covering a wide selection of her operatic repertoire, and made either live or in the studio between 1996 and 2010, her technical skills, expressivity and interpretative insights are never in doubt...Several things stand out. One is that her vocalism throughout is not merely exceptionally accurate, but invariably meaningful.
