Soloist is helped off stage in mid-concerto
NewsWe are hearing distressed reports from Stavanger in Norway where the Latvian violinist Baiba Skride had to be helped off stage after becoming unwell during her performance of the first Prokofiev violin concerto.
The concerto was abandoned and, after a break, conductor and orchestra returned to perform Tchaikovky’s Pathetique Symphony.
No further details are presently available.
Skride, 40, is one of three sisters on the international stage.
