»Experiencing the majesty, myth and mystery of nature« through her voice and expressions is what Joyce DiDonato has set out to do in her new programme, Eden. »With the magic of theatre and the power of music, we will explore our connection to nature and our place on this planet,« is her goal.
At the New York Met, the Kansas-born mezzo-soprano is one of the big stars. The versatile stylist, whose repertoire ranges from baroque to bel canto and romantic to contemporary, is celebrated all over the world. As an activist for a fairer world, she gives her art to many less fortunate people, sings in prisons or for refugee children. In »Eden«, Joyce DiDonato and the ensemble Il Pomo d'Oro under Maxim Emelyanychev invite you on a journey full of great music from Handel to Ives, from Gluck to Mahler, a magical, sensual and contemplative expedition.
