She has a great note foundation, diaphragmatic breathing to the maximum and she utilizes the gnaw to reach higher notes. So you are right she is great ,one of the best for me , I also like Diana Damrau as well. They are both really great

I absolutely LOVE Luciana but I just think her voice is just too sweet to play the Queen of the Night. I mean her technique is flawless, her voice is as always inhumanly perfect and she sounds mesmerizingly beautiful and pleasant, don't get me wrong. But she just doesnt give me that "crazy evil queen who urges her daughter to kill a man or she will disown her and hate her forever" vibe, you know. her voice is smooth, light and sweet, even here. idk, just feel like thats not the right role for her to interpret.

Mozart always need a lighter bright voice for the high sopranos, because Mozart has 5-7 voices (soprano-many times a high and a lower soubrette, mezzo, tenor, baritone-sometimes a baritone and a bass baritone, and bass), too dark would fall into the mezzo voice category. It’s not like 19th century bel canto where the voices are required to cover a greater range so you only have three voices-soprano, tenor, and baritone, that’s it. So you can have a darker more dramatic voice to cover those ranges, like Maria Callas. Mozart used more stringent classical harmonious theory so too dark a voice for a soprano would not harmonize well, amongst other things.
