According to BBC Music Magazine, ‘She is like a sun that can’t help but produce warmth and joy when she comes on stage’. A guest of George Petrou and the Camerata Musicians, with a voice of unique beauty, flexibility, precision, naturalness, and musicality that will be heard in this country for the first time. Twenty-eight-year-old Russian opera singer, born in the faraway Sakhalin Island in the Pacific, became an international sensation at the age of twenty, when Dame Kiri te Kanawa introduced her as her protégée.
