    As a little trivia, you may know that the suprano area in "The Fifth Element" comes from this opera. You know the one that is sung by the blue lady.

    Wrong soprano. That was Albania's Inva Mulla Tchako.

    @shinjukuboy: I have that piece on my iPod, I know the vocalists name!

    But, both Ms. Damrau and Ms. Mulla perform "Lucia di Lammermoor"...

    pamelot, I was not referring to the singer, just the song. Very beautiful.
