Grammy Award Nomination, 2023 – Best Classical Solo Vocal Album
Eden
Joyce DiDonato, soloist; Maxim Emelyanychev, conductor (Il Pomo D’Oro)
“The staggering, joyful artistry of Joyce DiDonato reminds us that in any generation there are a few giants. Joyce is not only a great, brave and inspiring artist – one of the finest singers of our time- but she is also a transformative presence in the arts. Those who know her repertoire are in awe of her gifts, and those who know nothing of it are instantly engaged. Joyce sings and the world is suddenly brighter. She compels us to listen actively, to hear things anew.”
- Jake Heggie, Gramophone
Multi-Grammy Award winner and 2018 Olivier Award winner for "Outstanding Achievement" in Opera, Kansas-born Joyce DiDonato entrances audiences across the globe, and has been proclaimed “perhaps the most potent female singer of her generation” by the New Yorker. Her newest release, EDEN, explores a rich and eclectic programme with works from Charles Ives, Gustav Mahler, Giovanni Valentini, Christoph Willibald Gluck, Richard Wagner, and more!
This deluxe edition features two all-new tracks, including a collaborative piece with the Beautiful Chorus!
"EDEN is an invitation to return to our roots. It is an overture to engage with the sheer perfection of the world around us, to consider if we are connecting as profoundly as we can to the pure essence of our being. It is a clarion call to contemplate if our collective suffering isn’t perhaps linked to the aching separation from something primal within and around us. This is a vivid musical exploration through the centuries to remember and to create a new EDEN from within."
- Joyce DiDonato
