“DiDonato’s voice is truly one of nature’s great wonders: luminous, silken, flexible, full of colors and expressive shadings, always supported by the breath so even the finest threads of tone shine. In an aria from Handel’s Theodora, one long-lined phrase offers a radiant example: “Raise our hopes of endless light.” Joyce DiDonato’s Eden may not have all the answers, but it raises the right questions.”
