Joyce DiDonato

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
If the economy has you upset, consider the fate of Handel heroines. On a new CD, American mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato presents 14 mad scenes – angry arias by temperamental and vindictive heroines. DiDonato joins us to share those with us, and talk about her busy career, which took off after winning the Metropolitan Opera’s Beverly Sills Award.
