Russian American Soprano, Erika Baikoff, a recent graduate of the Metropolitan Opera’s Lindemann Young Artist Programme, is amassing a loyal following at major musical centres across the globe, including at Houston Grand Opera, Bayerisches Staatsopera and in recitals at the Alice Tully Hall New York, Wigmore Hall and at Schubertiade Schwarzenberg. Alongside her duo partner Soohong Park, she will demonstrate the interesting threads that can be drawn between jewels by Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov. Between the two Russians, so influenced by the music of France, the duo presents exotic Ravel.

Does the day reign

At my window
Night is sorrowful
Do not sing before me
