Joyce DiDonato offers valuable advice to her younger self, and to young performers everywhere

Askonas Holt has launched a new video series in which leading classical musicians consider what advice they would give to their younger selves as they set out on a career in music. The series begins with Joyce DiDonato, who says: 'What I've learned is that there is no arrival point for a career. A career and a life in music is cyclical and you have real ups that are very high, and you have real downs that are very low... But no matter what you decide to do, go for it with integrity and joy.'
