Joyce DiDonato - EDEN

Joyce DiDonato, mezzo-soprano

Chamber orchestra “Il Pomo d’Oro” (Italy)
Conductor – Maxim Emelyanychev

One of the greatest contemporary singers, three-time Grammy Award winner – Joyce DiDonato, for the first time in Latvia. The star of world opera will present her new project – “Eden”. The concert program will feature music by Handel, Purcell, Mahler, Wagner and Ives.

The new project of Joyce DiDonato called “Eden” was created not only as a concert, but also as a program of a pedagogical and interdisciplinary nature. It is based on the singer’s desire to explore the connection of each person with nature and the impact of individual actions on the planet. In collaboration with the orchestra “Il Pomo d’Oro”, DiDonato has come up with a repertoire that deepens this theme through a variety of musical languages, from the 17th century to Rachel Portman, the British composer who won an Oscar for the soundtrack to the film “Emma” (1996) and who was commissioned for the play “The First morning of the world”, specially for this project.

The ensemble “Il Pomo d’Oro” , an authentic baroque band, will perform with the famous mezzo-soprano.
