Dear Ms. DiDonato! Thank you for your way of explaining in a specific way the difference between composers, characters and roles. It’s fantastic and easier to understand them and the artist’s way to play them!! Thank you!!

Joyce was absolutely gorgeous. Both her singing and acting was simply miraculous. She was truly the star of that evening. Such a wonderful artist.

Such. A great. Artist. She is truly at service of the music 100% of the time. Her explanation of her character is coming 100% from what the composer put on the page. Such an inspiring, humble and hardworking artist. ... not to mention a gorgeous voice.

I just saw a concert with her: War and Peace. Fantastic. She just remembered the audience how difficult is to have Trump leading the USA. Of course she didn't use straight words but we understood.
