With a performance roster including Vienna State Opera, the Concertgebow, Covent Garden, Los Angeles, Houston and La Scala and an upcoming performance at the Metropolitan Opera, Galina is in orbit around an impressive collection of stars. Her colleagues have included Domingo, Gergiev, Haitink, Ozawa and now Maestro Constantine Orbelian and his splendid Philharmonia of Russia. This accessible new recording brings opera's greatest and most-beloved arias to the listener infused with the bright beauty of this operatic star.
