Joyce DiDonato: EDEN 29.08.2024

Fusing music, movement and theatre, EDEN is a breath-taking, through-performed tour de force from the multi-award winning Joyce DiDonato that’s been immediately celebrated as “iconic” and “ground-breaking.” By traveling seamlessly through four centuries of music, including a new commission from Academy-Award winning composer, Rachel Portman, a searing and singular experience of hope and connection unfolds. DiDonato is joined by her long-standing, celebrated musical partners, il pomo d'oro and Maxim Emelyanychev.

In each city, EDEN engages a local children’s choir who will participate in workshops with bespoke curricula created by International Teaching Artists Collaborative on local environmental issues in their city, to raise awareness for climate change. They then perform the EDEN anthem with Joyce and il pomo d’oro on stage as part of the performance.

And the EDEN experience continues to grow outside of the concert hall as each audience member receives seeds to plant as Joyce asks: “In this time of upheaval, which seed will you plant today?”
