Joyce DiDonato - Brilla nell'alma 

Splendida Joyce Di Donato!

Joyce is fantastic - technique, presence, joie de vivre, she has it all. What a singer!

I've never seen Joyce DiDonato before..her voice is exquisite and she literally 'soaks' up every emotion..she sees the scene of the song and puts absolute joy and skill into the entire thing..such control too..Oh my Lord!!..wonderful to watch!! Bellisimo!!...

This performance so beautiful. Makes life feel less troubling.

Her voice is just as if flowing above her body. Joyce is amazing!!!

Absolutely stunning. She is such a fresh breath of air with her beautiful voice, perfect technique and bubbly personality. Just love 💘 ❤ this woman to bits.

The musicians seem to love what they do :') Great performance

oh my god is that just gorgeous on every level. So muich joy and passion in only 5 minutes!

This is why the press has described her voice as nothing less than 24 carat gold.

Isn’t she just the best? Certainly to my ears, thank you for posting this.

She really is at the top of her game here. The style won't necessarily be to everyone's taste (decidedly not "early music"), but this is a masterclass in making this particular style work well for Handel. 3.00-3.10 is sublime.

Handel is sublime and the performance proves it.

La recreación de la época es maravillosa,felicitaciones .

Elle chante bien si bien que l'on se croirait à l'époque où ont été composées ces oeuvres baroques .. INCROYABLE mais VRAI !!

Joyce didonato is my favorite opera singer along with Cecilia Bartoli.

Just Awesome!

It is marvelous❗️BRAVO❗️❗️❗️There’s life before and after Handel’s music and those two are completely different stories...for me at least. The life after is the one I’m so much blessed with🕺

Just...amazing

wow this was sublime, like really a piece of heaven. Dont love her timbre at times, but she is full of live here and that clear and gorgeous tone.. Thanks for sharing, Handel never gets old

She is singing, very very well indeed, in Scuola di San Rocco ( St. Rocco School) one of most magnificent and precious place in Venezia,

❤❤❤

If John Keats was a singer.. liquid truth and beauty. Love you Joyce. X

thank you. Brilliantly.

Wonderful!!!

Bravissima! Awesome! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🙌🏻

Wow, she is the greatest mezzo there is

Phantastic!

Amazing.

Amazing

Maravillosa.bravo

Hope this Donna Leon's Venice TV will be shown in the USA!

The synching is off but one can still take on board the energy and joy of performance both Joyce and the wonderful ensemble of instruments

OMG! How adorable and lovely ! I am enjoying her singing (✿◠‿ ◠)

Yes, joyce is also my alias name... VPO.. TY!

wow

wowwwww

Best soprano I have ever heard, beats the young Callas, Sutherland, Price, Fleming, Ponselle, Sills, and all the Der Rosencavalier coloraturas. Simply the best.

Handel, Handel, amazing.

Brilla nell’Alma Un non inteso ancor dolce contento E d’alta gioia il Cor, soave inonda. Sì nella Calma Azzurro brilla il Mar se splende il Sole, E i Rai fan tremolar tranquilla l’Onda

Is she wearing a pair of trousers underneath her dress? Lovely aria by the way.

오 조이스 디도나토!

it's from the opera : Alessandro! and the role who sings the aria is : Rossane

Scuola di San Rocco?

That violinist’s awkward smile, though.

Why does it sound prerecorded? Like, it looks like the video and the sound don't match up.

that outfit is the death of me right now, also that voice. OY

*constant repeat*

1:14 is that Patti LuPone?

;

all those little trills remind me of another wonderful mezzo - Cecelia Bartolli, except this one's voice is a little "lighter"

I like sandrine piau's version better but this was exquisite as well

Boca de riñon. C'est d'un grotesque achevé. On meurt d'ennui
