Grammy award-winning mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato recently spoke with me about her new album “Songplay,” where she takes a new and creative approach to vocal music from the Baroque and Classical periods, as well as from the 20th century. It is truly a mix of genres, with classical, jazz and tango all represented.
