Joyce DiDonato

 

Orchestra of the National Academy of St. Cecilia, Rome / Edoardo Muller

 

Joyce DiDonato turns to the composer whose heroines first brought her to international stardom: Gioachino Rossini.

 

Rossini’s two best-known comic operas proved essential in building the Kansas-born singer’s reputation over the last decade, but this recital focuses primarily on his serious works. This Rossini programme includes two arias from La donna del lago. DiDonato takes the role of Elena, written for a soprano, but a great success in the 1980s for DiDonato’s idol, fellow high mezzo Frederica von Stade. The other arias on the CD were also all composed for soprano: they come from Otello, Semiramide, Armida, Maometto II and Elisabetta regina d'Inghilterra.
