Pour sa première au festival toulousain, le jeune Américain a fait passer son clavier par toutes les émotions, par toutes les couleurs, par tous les extrêmes, sans jamais trembler ni faillir.

From Fauré and Duparc to Barber, Ives and Copland, the Canadian bass-baritone and Julius Drake explore a range of song.

Jamie Barton and Kathleen Kelly offer a thought-provoking meditation on women as they are portrayed and as they portray themselves.

To open the new season, the Seattle Symphony and Ludovic Morlot were joined by star mezzo Joyce DiDonato, whose performance sent listeners over the top and over the rainbow.

Joyce DiDonato enchants the public of the Amsterdam Concertgebouw with a program of art songs and arias inspired by Venice.

She made cynics swoon and skeptics burst: Jessye Norman, along with pianist Mark Markham, serenaded eager listeners with love songs from the Great American Songbook and 20th-century France.

The Last Night of the Proms provided a welcome tying-up of the various strands that have permeated this year’s season: British light music, the 60th anniversary of the Coronation, a host of premières and new BBC commissions, and the significant anniversaries of a number of composers (including the big-hitters of the season, Wagner and Britten).
