Joyce DiDonato sings ’Lascia ch’io pianga’ from Handel’s Rinaldo,

Courtesy of Directors Cut Productions and Sky Arts. While this has long been one of my favorite arias (and, in fact, will be featured on my upcoming new album), the heartbreak of these last days coming from the brutal killings in Orlando make it even more poignant for me to share here, today. I hope it will bring some comfort, some understanding. Very proud to be wearing a custom Vivienne Westwood gown and SWAROVSKI jewels.
