The “beauty and range of her singing are surely now at their impressive peak” said the Financial Times of mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato. She is joined by some of her dearest musical friends for an intoxicating evening of French music, including sensuous and riveting songs by Ravel, Debussy, and others.
