Þessi frábæra ópera verður flutt á Listahátíð í konsertformi 22. maí nk. í Eldborg Hörpu. Ég verð að segja ein af mínum uppáhalds.
Þar syng ég friðarspillinn og kjaftatífuna Mrs. Sedley. Ég hef mest gaman af svona týpum!
The Icelandic Opera and Reykjavik Arts Festival is performing Peter Grimes at Harpa. I will be singing Mrs. Sedley, who’s plot brings Mr. Grimes down along with others in town. Great funny and crazy role!

Föstudaginn 13. febrúar verð ég með hádegistónleika ásamt Margréti Hjaltested og Guðríði Sigurðardóttur. Við ætlum að koma fram með dagskrá sem hentar hljóðfærunum okkar, mezzósópran og víólu ásamt píanói.
Það sem er skemmtilegt við þessa dagskrá er að við Margrét “spilum” báðar á hljóðfæri sem eru stundum í aukahlutverki og ekki alltaf þekkt fyrir að vera í forgrunni, í Margrétar tilviki í hljómsveitum og mínu tilviki í óperuuppfærslum. Það sem einkennir bæði “hljóðfærin” er mýkt og dökkur tónn. Við tókum okkur saman og fundum alls kyns verk sem hafa verið skrifuð fyrir okkur saman, bæði eldri og yngri verk.
Kl. 12, föstudaginn 13. febrúar, aðgangseyrir kr. 1500.- og posi við innganginn.

The operagroup “Óp-hópurinn” is a group of great young singers who will be performing Suor Angelica on Saturday. They have asked me to sing the Badessa. Although a very short role (I think my shortest ever!) it needs to have authority and power.
Its fun to sing in a nun costume…the last time I did that was in a red nun costume in Carsons production of Zauberflöte at Opera de Lyon.
