REVIEW
(Di Donata) regularly seizes the bel canto initiative, bringing Bellini's lines alive with meaning; she really understands how to put this music over to its(and her) best advantage, getting all round notes, plus the decorations, with a real potency of expressive purpose. --Opera, Jan'15

This is a fine performance of Bellini's score. Joyce DiDonata is everything you want in a Romeo, ardent and angry and in superb voice. Performance **** Picture + Sound **** --BBC Music Magazine, Feb'15
