Janet Baker sings
Jun 29th, 2008 by oldfogey
As my first post, here is Janet Baker singing Vaughan William’s setting of Rossetti’s poem “Silent Noon”. It was recorded from a BBC recital she gave, with Geoffrey Parsons as her accompanist, in 1981, just after she had retired from the opera stage. I was fortunate to see her final performance at the English National Opera that same year.
