Now appearing as Cherubino at the
Lyric Opera of Chicago
"It was wonderful to have Joyce DiDonato back at Lyric in one of the American mezzo's great "pants parts" as the page Cherubino, investing her ballad, "Voi che sapete," with meltingly beautiful sound and playing the boy's gangling randiness to the endearing hilt."
Three Centuries of Italian Love Songs
Recital Tour
"In the voice of Joyce DiDonato songs that most singers use as warm-up material or as encores become sudden, radiant masterpieces...her voice is at present nothing less than 24-carat gold." - The Times
"...the purity and trancendence of her performance was spell-binding ... her voice lushly over-spilled: singer, actress, communicator - her warmth, joy and exuberance was exhilarating." - Opera Today
"El Liceu tiene ya una nueva musa. ¡Olé Joyce!"
("The Liceu has a new muse.") - El Periódico
