Grammy-Award winning opera star Joyce DiDonato, acclaimed conductor Michael Stern and the talented young musicians of the Kansas City Symphony perform together at architect Moshe Safdie’s new Kansas City Kauffman Center for Performing Arts for the first time in "Homecoming: The Kansas City Symphony Presents Joyce DiDonato."
