Dame Janet Baker, widely regarded as one of the greatest singers of all time, is to give a rare public interview on stage at Wigmore Hall on Sunday, September 30, 2018 at 3 PM. Dame Janet will be joined by the acclaimed actor Simon Callow to discuss her life in music and the remarkable voices and people who inspired her career.

The event will be live-streamed on Wigmore Hall’s website.

John Gilhooly, Director of Wigmore Hall, said “Dame Janet Baker is quite rightly considered one of the most important artists of the twentieth century and her unique artistry remains an inspiration to musicians and music-lovers around the world. It will be a great privilege to welcome her back on to the stage at Wigmore Hall and to hear first-hand about her life and those who inspired her, in her 85th birthday year.”
