A little less than a year after this moment, captured at Carnegie Hall, the great mezzo soprano Joyce DiDonato received yet another Grammy nomination for 2017 Best Classical Solo Vocal Album for : "In War & Peace".

It's a moving, daring work that lovingly conceived by this multi-Grammy award winner, with a mission and message that's more timely than ever. If you were fortunate enough to see Joyce, the dancer Manuel Palazzo and the orchestra Il Pomo D'Oro perform together, then you know why this nomination is so well deserved. Music does indeed, have the power to create change.

Joyce created her makeup ('War' for Act I, 'Peace' for Act 2) every night, with her own hands, in the pressurized rush between acts. The makeup itself, was a work of art.

Congratulations to an artist with a heart as enormous as her talent! Here's a link to one of the gorgeous singles from the album.
