Joyce DiDonato Sings Berlioz
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]Beethoven's explosive Eroica Symphony opens the London Philharmonic Orchestra’s memory-themed season, launched by Principal Conductor Edward Gardner.
When the world is on fire, heroes fall as fast as they rise – and after Napoleon Bonaparte revealed himself as a tyrant, Beethoven furiously cancelled the dedication of his new symphony.
Principal Conductor Gardner launches this season devoted to the subject of memory with the mighty Eroica (Heroic) Symphony.
First, though he shares gripping musical myths by Barber and Berlioz: tales of women who defied fate to remake the world.
And who better to take the role of Cleopatra than superstar soprano Joyce DiDonato – a woman who brings everything she sings to vibrant, dazzling life?

Berlioz: La mort de Cléopâtre for soprano & orchestra
