    Dame Janet Baker is today celebrating her 73rd birthday at her home in Yorkshire, England.

    This evening I shall listen to the very first recording she made - an anthology of English Song in which she was accompanied by Martin Isepp, the son of her principal vocal coach Helene Isepp (the latter a legend
    in her lifetime for the number of singers she helped train) and then
    one of the recordings that she believes is one of her best: Sea
    Pictures Op 37 by Edward Elgar.

    Kind regards,
