Grange Park Opera

Joyce DiDonato cast her exquisite magic over the Theatre in the Woods on 12 July 2019 for A Starry Night with Joyce DiDonato.

Iain Burnside accompanied on piano.

Audience reactions

“In the presence of someone who is an artist in the fullest sense we knew the voice would be of the quality we’ve come to expect but the choice of programme from the Haydn to the Hahn was masterly and all so wonderfully nuanced –from the soul. It was important and magnificent and it must count as one of the very special days of one’s life.”

“Absolutely perfect evening. Joyce Di Donato and her pianist were spell binding, I never moved a finger.”
