Mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato’s performances have been called “a model of singing in which all components of the art form-technique, sound, color, nuance, diction-come together in service to expression and eloquence” by The New York Times. The revered singer presents a series of three public master classes for young opera singers who were chosen from an international pool of applicants.

I wonder why so many young singers have technical problems. Beautiful voices, but without the right technology, they can't get anywhere. It's a shame. Joyce DiDonato is a fantastic teacher 👏👏👏

[@magicmonkichi]

"its technical work...its the process people!" ha. Luv DiDonato's classes. Great musician, and a fun teacher.

I want to sing for Joyce, cause I have similar issues! This is fantastic. Purity of vowel and great legato.

오 요즘 공부하는 곡인데 넘 기대되네요♡ 감사합니다♡ thx♡♡♡ :)

[@KrebSDani]

Awesome voice

[@jotge.3444]

Her technique is not complete, but I like her voice.

[@larissamontero]

Not really a mezzo, just an underdeveloped soprano

[@fulvioarborio9578]

Like Di Donato

[@clefnoteproductions6695]

She's also using the jaw which will cause more problems. She does have a nice voice, that I suspect may transition to lyric soprano in the future when she's comfortable with her top extention 😊. She just needs careful guidance

Quanta informação inútil!

[@OGrauMusic]

Beautiful voice, warm, and expressive. The technique is mediocre. Her respiratory control is imperfect, she must work on it if she wants to have a long career. The chest registry should also work. She is not really a mezzo. She urgently needs a good teacher.

wtf is that hahahahahah

[@dennisdennis2688]

They sound like mosquitoes Joyce is not the best point of reference for this aria Bartoli is perfection
