JOYCE DiDONATO

Live! Today! #Clemenza! @metopera #Broadcast! @vanhorncvh This one’s for you. #PublioRocks #WigWars #FreeSesto #fashion #werq #notreadytosaygoodbye

An extraordinary #openingnight on #Broadway last night as Orfeus’s song was sung anew in an astonishing show: #Hadestown. Immense respect for the incredible cast, crew, creative team, and for the eternal song that continues to need to be sung!!! A GREAT night of theater!! (And a huge shout out for NO routine key changes and assaulting amplification!) #fresh #whydowebuildthewall #pleasedontturnaround #doubt #destructivedoubt #raisingmycuprightback PS: @douglasladnier - thanks for the decades of friendship, my friend! You’re a treasure!

Our penultimate performance tonight of #LaClemenzaDiTito at the @metopera. This one will be difficult to say goodbye to! @polenzanitenor @elzasoprano @vanhorncvh @yingletsings #EmilyDAngelo @metoperachorus @metorchestra @metoperasupers #SestoForever

A most heartfelt thank you to these wonderful, brave artists. What a rich journey you all took us on during these 3 days. I couldn’t be prouder of each if you, and I thank you for giving so much of yourselves. I hope you felt how rich the reward was as you dared to walk through the fear!!! Bravi @key.sings, @alexandra_sings, @mayaamir91, and @aaroncmusic. Once again, @carnegiehall and @medici.tv are superstars for making these classes available across the globe. I hope you got a lot out of them! Many thanks for tuning in and see you next year!! #bravesingers #artislife #lifeisart #whereyouwalk #trustthepianissimo #openyourheart #nyanyanya #artheals #thatwasintense #keepyourpilotlightlit

I am thrilled to return to @CarnegieHall for three master classes this week! Tune in at 4 PM (EDT) today, tomorrow and on Sunday to watch the live stream on @medici.tv. 👉 link in bio. #masterclass #livestream

Once upon a time there was a magical presence in the world who made us all believe in fairy tales again!! It was a tremendous honor to present Laurent Pelly with his well deserved @opera.news Award last night at the @theplazahotel in NYC. OF course so much of the Opera Family Royalty was on hand, including the [email protected]_domingo and fellow honoree, the radiant @ailynperezsoprano. Friends joining from KC made it even more special! Congratulations to all the honorees!!! #celebratingopera Photos from the fab @darioshoots and Lisa Pacino. @kevindeenart @palluccab

What a joy to join my @carnegiehall family, under the visionary leadership of the Chairman, Robert Smith, and the Executive Director, Clive Gillinson. I’m certain this legendary institution will lead many other arts organizations into a vibrant, transformative, inspired future where Art is for all. Of course, to commemorate such a shining occasion, how could we not celebrate the beauty of @cartier?? A million thanks for the exquisite jewels. And finally, there simply aren’t enough words to sing the praises of pianist @bryanwagorn highly enough. I suppose that’s why we felt the need for a mock prom pic. #howdoigettocarnegiehall #nolie #practicepracticepractice #andonceyougetthere #shineshineahine #thefutureisSObright #ifweallriseup. Thank you @julieskarratt for the lovely souvenir photos!
