A star-studded tribute to Joan Sutherland — celebrating the 100th birthday of La Stupenda (“the stupendous one”) at the Sydney Opera House, in the theatre that bears the icon’s name. When Joan Sutherland sang, the world listened. With astonishing technique, extraordinary musicality, and impossibly perfect high notes, she brought forgotten heroines to life and earned her own place in operatic history. Homegrown opera sensation Jessica Pratt famously followed in Sutherland's footsteps, singing Lucia di Lammermoor at La Scala. Hear her unique, luminous coloratura as she tackles an incredible program of highlights from Joan Sutherland’s most celebrated roles. Australian-Chinese tenor Kang Wang and the Opera Australia Orchestra and Chorus join Pratt with sensational Italian conductor Speranza Scappucci at the podium.
