With her flexible and darkly-timbred mezzo-soprano, Joyce DiDonato is the star guest at Sir Simon Rattle’s side during the New Year’s Eve Concert, singing Richard Strauss’s lavishly beautiful orchestral songs. The program also includes works by Dvorák, Stravinsky, Bernstein and Shostakovich and will create the perfect atmosphere for the New Year’s celebrations.
