The Poet's Echo
25 October 2024, 1:00pm - 2:00pm
Erika Baikoff is a recent graduate of the Metropolitan Opera’s Lindemann Young Artist Development Program, and is already fast establishing herself on the international recital scene. Joined by the pianist James Baillieu (‘in a class of his own’, The Daily Telegraph), she presents high-Romantic songs by Joseph Marx and Tchaikovsky. They also perform Dvóřak’s passionate Zigeunerlieder, and Benjamin Britten’s The Poet’s Echo: six settings of Pushkin dedicated to the legendary soprano Galina Vishnevskaya.
