Work: Var det en dröm (Was It a Dream?), Op.37 no.4

A study of landscapes, freedom and love from the Anna-Maria Helsing and BBC Concert Orchestra, plus the world premiere of a Trinidadian concerto for orchestra. 

In her New York recital debut, the young Norwegian soprano displays the extent of her vocal and theatrical power in an unusually wide-ranging program of songs and opera arias. 

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.
