Last days in Vadstena...

Saturday night "Here be Opera" reached its final destination, and everyone in the crew is very proud of the result! To put together three operas in three weeks....including everything...is nearly impossible...BUT with lots of effort we made it possible! Congrats to everyone involved!

Happy ending...

Before going back to Stockholm after a month in Vadstena, I participated in the Verner von Heidenstam Award ceremony of the annual "Övralid"-day (the 6th of July,  the birthday of our national poet von Heidenstam). This year Anders Cullhed was awarded and I was chosen to sing a couple of songs with lyrics by von Heidenstam.


Preparing myself...










The ceremony was held at Övralid, the mansion of Verner von Heidenstam. He designed this beautiful home himself!












Me waiting to perform under a big umbrella...rain, rain, rain....never ending story...



I'm singing in the rain...
