Overview

CSO Artist-in-Residence Joyce DiDonato coaches three extraordinary singers from the Patrick G. and Shirley W. Ryan Opera Center in a special masterclass, free to the public. DiDonato’s 2025/26 residency has emphasized meaningful connections with Chicago through education and community engagement, and this masterclass offers a rare opportunity to experience her artistry in action.
