“DiDonato’s Emily was a fiercely intelligent, physically brazen woman. Her voice roared and bloomed with conviction across the work’s two-and-a-half-octave range, from throaty lows to shuddering highs, from a meaty bellow to a thread of gossamer.”
— The New York Times

“Not a traditional song cycle or quite a concert, but something more like an immersive theatrical ritual.”
— OperaWire

A staged concert experience that blends the music of Kevin Puts with the poetry of Emily Dickinson.

Emily – No Prisoner Be unites Emily Dickinson’s poetry with Pulitzer Prize-winner Kevin Puts’ luminous 24-part song cycle, created for Metropolitan Opera star Joyce DiDonato and GRAMMY® Award-winning ensemble Time For Three. Brimming with energy and passion, Dickinson’s poetry and Puts’ music feel as if they have always belonged together.

Don’t miss the San Diego première of this acclaimed piece from Austria’s Bregenzer Festspiele.

The performance contains theatrical haze and strobe lights.
