Joyce DiDonato – Gala Concert

This concert will be a momentous one. American opera singer Joyce DiDonato joins the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra in what will be her first ever performance in Australia.

Joyce’s rich and agile voice has captivated audiences around the world. With multiple Grammy Awards under her belt, Joyce has risen to prominence as a performer, producer, and passionate advocate for the arts. Her impressive repertoire, spanning over four centuries, alongside her diverse and celebrated discography, exemplifies her innovative approach to music. With groundbreaking projects that lead the industry, DiDonato’s artistry has redefined the role of a singer in the 21st century.

Joyce will perform Berlioz’s Les Nuits d’été , a song cycle consisting of six songs set to the poetry of Théophile Gautier. Each song is distinct in mood and theme, fitting for her expressive range and emotional depth. Also on the program is Beethoven’s seventh symphony, a piece also celebrated for its powerful expression and emotion.
