Soprano Seljan Nasibli takes us on a musical journey
Soprano Seljan Nasibli reveals familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light, from a vocal piece that shines in a version for piano, to a Portuguese Fado song.
Seljan Nasibli shares a selection of music that spans time and space, from one of her own recordings that brings back memories of cold snowy landscapes outside the studio in Ukraine in 2017, to George Gershwin鈥檚 American in Paris.
She also reveals her affinity with Portuguese Fado singing, and introduces music reflecting her Azerbaijani roots including Legend of Love by composer Arif Melikov and a song performed by vocalist Alim Qasimov, Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble.
Plus, operatic gems include Verdi鈥檚 Overture to Attila, Ren茅e Fleming singing Massenet鈥檚 Tha茂s, Handel鈥檚 Semele and more鈥�
A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
