This is a gift. Haven't seen this before. I've been a fan since 1997 when I first heard her lieder recordings. Of course I would have wanted to see her in opera but I was just 5 when she retired and I live in Asia.
Janet Baker carries within her both, the music and the depth of her subject and behaves like part of an entirely subjective human knowledge, the only equivalent of which is at the service of music and its divinities. Thank you to H C Leskov for this wonderful video !

What a great lady!
Brilliantly insightful, honest look into her last year in Opera - keeps me going!
I remember airing this program on Bravo as a Master Control operator in the 1980s.
