Lure of Latvia - Renowned violinist Baiba Skride takes us to the Baltic state she grew up in.
At age six, Baiba Skride started at a special music school for gifted children in Riga, the Emil Darzin Music School. Star violinist Gidon Kremer also graduated from the school. She says she ows much of her success to Ludmila Girska, her former violin teacher. Baiba Skride spends a day in her former school and shows us around.
She plays like a dirty Refugee. Very nice...

We love you Baiba! and we hope you can come to New Zealand again to play for us again soon. You played so beautifully for us on your tour a couple of years ago. My 9 year old daughter has a huge poster of you and your violin! We have a Stradivarius copy violin and love it! We love to see the children learning the violin too....xxx

A wonderful look at a visit by a talented violinist, Baiba Skride, to her old Latvian school for gifted future musicians. Baiba also has two equally talented sisters: Lauma the pianist and Linda the violist. Very nice video clip. Check out their music on CD.
