Joyce DiDonato, ‘Diva, Divo’ – the two DiDonatos: one in pants, the other in pearls.
“…one of those once-in-a-generation singers” ~ Classic FM
“CAN [Rossini] EVER HAVE HEARD – OR IMAGINED – HIS MUSIC BETTER SUNG THAN IT WAS HERE?

The album, released September 2, will celebrate 10 years of acclaimed recordings with Virgin and EMI Classics

On Saturday, September 7th, Joyce DiDonato will join violinist Nigel Kennedy and American conductor Maris Alsop leading the BBC Orchestra and Chorus for the Last Night of the Proms in London ~ a highlight of the International Music Calendar, and one of the grandest celebrations of classical music in the world. Watched by nearly 2 million viewers around the globe, it is an event not to be missed. Joyce will sing arias of Handel, Rossini and Massenet, as well as the standards, “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, “Danny Boy”, and following tradition, she will lead the thousands of Prommers in “Rule, Britannia!” More information can be found here.
After a year with Valery Gergiev, “Classica” crowns the next “Artist of the Year” by naming Joyce DiDonato the royal successor. Thanks to the huge output of recorded material on both Audio Disc and DVD, her versatility shines through with exemplary performances from Handel to Rossini and Massenet: La Reine de l’annee.
