Nikolay Baskov studied Gnessin music academy in Moscow, and became an aspirant of Moscow State Petr Chaykovsky Conservatory. In 1998 Baskov won the first prize on All-Russian Young Singers Competition and second prize in Grande Voce competition 1999 in Spain.
The same year he was invited to Bolshoi theatre troup. He performed the major arias in such operas as Evgeni Onegin, Prince Igor, Boris Godunov, Traviata and others.
In 2000 he recorded his debut solo album «Posvyashenie» (Dedication). The music videos "Mgnovenie" (based on Albinoni's Adagio in G minor) and "Caruso" were aired on Russian TV and increased his popularity.
Since 2001, Baskov abandoned Bolshoi to run his commercially successful solo career. Though Baskov's repertoire consists mostly of modernly-arranged arias and romances, he performs pop music as well. In 2005 he toured USA.
Nikolay often performs together with pop artists, as well as with classical singers, such as Montserrat Caballé.
