Joyce DiDonato – Emily

Emily - No Prisoner Be is a groundbreaking project, built on the poems of bold, audacious, vulnerable, fragile, extraordinary 19th-century poet Emily Dickinson. It is the fruit of an electrifying artistic collaboration from multi-GRAMMY award winning singing icon, Joyce DiDonato and the genre-defying string trio of Charles Yang, Nicolas Kendall and Ranaan Meyer from Time for Three. The album was composed by the Pulitzer Prize-winning, Kevin Puts. Emily - No Prisoner Be is a theatrical song cycle that sets Emily Dickinson's best-known poems alongside some of her lesser-known gems to music that moves from deeply intimate to absolutely electrifying virtuosity. It blends classical mastery with a rock energy in a vivid reimagining of Dickinson's poetic universe.The album is for everyone, because the music invites you in, no matter who you are or what kind of music you love.
