When the New York Times compares a voice with 24-carat gold, they can only be talking about one singer – mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato. »Music can save life, heal wounds, unite communities and afford deep comfort and hope even in the darkest hours.« Very much in the spirit of her belief, it is not surprising that Joyce DiDonato not only enters into an emotional exchange with the audience when on stage, but also demonstrates her sense of social responsibility by her involvement in various musical sponsorship programmes. In her new programme »Songplay«, a mix of jazz songs, Baroque and Early Classical music, she issues with charm and style a »bold invitation to play«, showing the pleasure she takes in experiment at the highest level.
