Joyce revives her acclaimed Idamante for the Teatro Real in Madrid beginning July 18
"...DiDonato makes Idamante's arias sound more glorious than they really are. In the duet with Ilia, the 'Addio' trio and the quartet, and above all in the wrenching accompagnato before the oracle's pronouncement, the American mezzo approached the sublime.
This Idomeneo was worth catching for her alone."
