Amazing Grace

...during powerful conference ending!



Today I had the honor being a part of the ending service during the World Pentecostal Conference 2010, held this year in Stockholm. Members from all over the world gathered for a couple of days for inspiration, teaching and to focus on the heart and soul.
Except for the beautiful "Amazing Grace" I sang the amazing Barbara Streisand song "I believe":

"I believe for every drop of rain that falls
a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night
a candle glows
I believe for every one who goes astray
someone will come
to show the way
I believe

I believe above the storm a smallest prayer
will still be heard
and I believe that someone in the great somewhere
his everyword
everytime I hear a newborn baby cry
or touch a leaf
or see a star
then I know why
I believe"


Artist during the conference!

Secret guest

...at opera night!

Tonight I had the honor being the secret guest artist during the premiere of the Höör Summer Opera 2010. This annual opera production includes both children and professional adult singers and musicians. The director Tord Nihlén and the musical director Viggo Edén are also the founders and the engines of this popular summer opera!
Since Höör is where I grew up, the Höör Music and Cultural School and the music productions directed mostly by Viggo Edén are my musical roots. Thanks to all these fantastic years of superb musical training and education, of singing, of playing the violoncello, of concert productions and of tours, I have the possibility of being where I am today! Special thanks to my main teachers during these years; Viggo Edén, Mia Enoksson Blomqvist (violoncello) and Håkan Carlsson.

My evening surprise was the Doll song from the opera The Tales of Hoffmann by Jacques Offenbach.


Me as the Doll!

Beautiful south

...in a Summer's breeze!


Me and Per Engström at the Tullstorp Church, Smygehamn.

Tonight I was very proud holding a concert in Tullstorp Church, not far from Smygehamn, at the very south of Sweden. Since I grew up not far from here it was a special and lovely feeling singing this evening! I did songs with a touch of love and of summer together with the pianist and conductor Per Engström. We will continue doing music together this coming season in Dracula the Musical. Per Engström will conduct and I will do the main character Mina.

Another successful night...

...in Pärnu!



Yesterday the second performance of Beethoven Symphony No 9, the "Choral", was held in the Concert Hall of Pärnu, Estonia. A wonderful night with superb co-musicians and a lovely audience! Looking forward to visit Estonia hopefully soon again!
