Overview

James Baillieu shares the stage with the exciting young Cuban soprano Elena Villalón, who makes her Wigmore Hall debut with a programme of powerfully evocative songs. They move from nostalgic pieces by Sibelius and Rachmaninov to delicious melodies from Spain, Cuba and Mexico, including Maria Grever’s heartwarming Te quiero dijiste.
