Netrebko performs in Moscow

Russian opera singer, Anna Netrebko, known as the world's Number One Soprano, has given a concert at the Moscow Conservatoire, together with an Italian baritone, Ildebrando D'Arcangelo.

Ms Netrebko is currently working at the Vienna Opera and, despite her very tough schedule, she managed to please her Russian audience.

She is sometimes thought of as a “Cinderella of our time” as she used to clean the floors of the Mariinsky Theatre in St Petersburg while studying at the Conservatoire.

Now her name can be seen on the bills of the Covent Garden Theatre and Metropolitan Opera.

The house was fully packed as all her concerts are really impressive performances.
