This recital was scheduled opposite Joyce DiDonato in Kevin Puts's new song cycle to poems of Emily Dickinson. One throws up one's hands at having had to make such a choice. I probably should have gone to JDD, whom I interviewed last fall for an article about portraying Sister Helen Prejean in Jake Heggie's Dead Man Walking, but this was a wonderful concert.
