<em>Vocal Exchange</em>

Concert Program VI

Vocal Exchange

Vocal Exchange juxtaposes treasured songs from three cultures. Without needing to understand a single word, listeners will experience national flavors through the very sounds of the languages. Russian-American soprano Erika Baikoff (a fluent French speaker) offers her unsurpassed vocal skill and bewitching personality, with instrumental contrasts and reflections rounding out this multidimensional program.
