The Russian Cultural Center Our Texas proudly presents Albina Shagimuratova, magnificent Russian coloratura soprano, who dazzled Houston Grand Opera audiences in recent years.

Accompanied by pianist Tali Morgulis, Albina will give an intimate recital performance Mozart and Rachmaninoff.

The program includes seldom performed romances and opera arias for the coloratura soprano, such as “Exsultate, jubilate” (“Exult, rejoice”) by Mozart and “Daisies” by Rachmaninoff.
