  Instrument Makers in Australasia

  Dame Janet Baker

  Lifetime Achievement Award, 2011 Gramophone Awards

  Four programmes

  (2) Opera

  Alan Platt introduces us to the least well known aspect of Dame Janet Baker's career: her roles in opera. Baker's decision to limit her operatic appearances to a selection of British venues meant that comparatively few people heard her perform this repertoire live - and while the opportunity to see her on stage is well and truly past, we can revisit recordings with someone who had season tickets (RNZ)
