Baiba Skride plays Benjamin Britten
Violin Concerto & Double Concerto
Baiba Skride (violin), ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, Marin Alsop
The subtlety of her phrasing and range of her tonal palette reveal Skride as a Romantic player of real stature, and in the Prokofiev-like scherzo she’s not afraid to dig in and make less beautiful... — More…

Wiener Staatsoper, Christian Thielemann

Liszt: Années de pélerinage; Première année - Suisse & Légende 2
RecommendedFrancesco Piemontesi (piano)

Kristine Opolais (Angelica), Lioba Braun (Princess), Nadezhda Serdyuk (Sister Monitor) & Mojca Erdmann (Sister Genovieffa)
WDR Sinfonieorchester Köln, Andris Nelsons
