A summer concert with some of the most eminent artists in the Gothenburg area. I’ll be singing at least a couple of duets, the beloved aria “O mio babbino caro” and a Finnish tango! The concert takes place on the lovely island of Tjörn, and at the dinner/afterparty, after the two concerts, we will serve some musical extra numbers of all kinds.
The free group “Kammaropera Syd” with tenor Rickard Söderberg put together a fabulous, as well as ambitious, operetta in Ystad, Sweden, now for third year in a row. This year they had chosen the music from various operettas and created a completely new story. The text was written by Rickard Söderberg. I had the privilege to play the part of Countess Olga in their updated “Merry Widow” last year, and this year at “Teaterhotellet” (The Theatre Hotel) I played the role of a suffragette, Stina Quint. The cast was amazing and the show as well. We played a total of 12 shows in 10 days. Quite an intense period, but fantastic to be working with a bunch of passionate professionals in an inspiring project!
