Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Var det en dröm (Was It a Dream?), Op.37 no.4

A voice with the proportions of a cathedral; a higher register that's entirely secure; an attention to text. Rosenblatt Recitals gave a tantalising preview of a singer who will have a stellar career.

An evening of songs by Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Quilter, and several Scandinavian composers.

If ever there were a voice that required the big hall of the Musikverein, it would be that of Nina Stemme. 

My first encounter with the Finnish partnership of Helena Juntunen and her accompanist Eveliina Kytömäki was as participants in the 2007 Cardiff Singer of the World Competition. Back then, I noted how accomplished Helena Juntunen was as a recitalist, whilst Eveliina Kytömäki was an idiomatic and sympathetic pianist who brought out the feeling in all she played.
