VOICE OF INFLUENCE
"Sashaying up the red-carpeted stairs of London’s Royal Opera House for the camera, resplendent in a Marchesa gown, El-Khoury is the very embodiment of a prima donna."-Harrods Magazine

"Blessed with old-school vocal and physical glamour
and a richly-coloured,
flexible soprano that shines particularly brightly in Verdi, Bellini and Donizetti"-Presto Classical -
"Joyce El-Khoury is miraculous...We’re left open-mouthed with admiration: the infinite length of her breath, the science of chiaroscuro, her projection in the high register, the quality of her pianissimo, the variety of accents, by turns strong and vulnerable, included in the extraordinarily lively recits, like we haven’t heard them since Callas."-Opéra Magazine

Event Details
Liszt’s unfinished one-act opera “Sardanapalo” is set to have its Hungarian premiere on Oct. 22, 2023.
The performance will take place at the LisztFest and will star Joyce El-Khoury in the role of Mirra alongside tenor Airam Hernandez in the title role of Sardanapalo and Bass-baritone Olecsandr Pushniak as Beleso. Kirill Karabits conducts the Staatskapelle Weimar and the Hungarian National Choir.
This performance will include a new score for this performance (corrected, revised), and images of magnificent Assyrian stone reliefs will be projected in the background, as a kind of scenery. The opera is set at the end of the Assyrian Empire, and these stone reliefs were being transported to Paris and London at exactly the time Liszt composed the music c. 1849-52.
The opera was first recorded in 2019 and was regarded as one of the best recordings of the year. You can purchase a copy of this recording featuring Joyce as Mirra here: https://www.prestomusic.com/classical/products/8539823–liszt-sardanapalo
