Joyce DiDonato\u2019s Master Classes\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms. DiDonato described her three master classes (April 21, April 22, April 23), given before the public, as a playground and as a three day arc. For two hours on three afternoons a packed house in Carnegie Hall\u2019s Resnick Education Wing watched and listened as the maestra took four singers through their paces. In addition, they had worked with Ms. Donato each morning. Francesca Chiejina, soprano, An\u00e9 Pretorius,<\/p>\n

mezzo-soprano, Jose Simerilla Romero, tenor and\u00a0 <\/span>Germ\u00e1n Enrique Alc\u00e1ntara, baritone were accompanied by two accomplished pianists, Justina Lee and Shannon McGinnis.\u00a0 <\/span>It was glorious. Ms. Donato\u2019s knowledge of music and people coupled with her teaching genius made the sessions a delicious respite from our contentious world. She had a singer blowing through a straw, two other singers dancing, and another singer sitting on a stack of three chairs. Why not? The master classes were streamed live online.<\/p>\n
