Except:
“Oblivion (J’Oublie) from 1982, composed for the Italian film, Enrico IV, contains an unforgettable memory. Soprano Yelena Dudochkin’s voice embodied, even haunted the piece, supplemented by Labro’s bandoneon and the Baloudet string quartet, with Oleg Oseonkov on bass and Maxim Lubarsky, piano.”
Yelena delivered two live performance talks at the World Economic Forum in Davos this year, speaking about the power of classical music and its importance to connecting with our authentic selves and to each other. She was also the featured artist filmed in a documentary on the Fourth Industrial Revolution currently in development for major TV networks.

“Dudochkin’s delivery was elegantly legato and even throughout her range, infusing the central section’s Portuguese text with yearning.” -Geoffrey Wieting
