Description
Berit Norbakken is one of Scandinavia's leading sopranos. Her versatility and flexibility of voice have allowed her to master a repertoire ranging from Baroque to contemporary, including folk music. Here she introduces a selection of repertoire consisting of arias from various operas and cantatas from the Baroque era, some of which are familiar to many while others are more unfamiliar. She says of this recording: "Our desire is to present our version, our encounter with this music and with each other in the music. The pieces are woven together through our artistic voices and experiences, helping to foster new connections." Her previous recordings have been critically acclaimed: "Soprano Berit Norbakken Solset sings with a clear, pure tone that continually delights." Charlottesvilleclassical.org. "...and so wonderfully performed, and the fabulous soprano, Berit Norbakken, who has exactly the right blend of straightness, so you can hear every note, but when she decides to open up, it \u0301s just fabulous, for me, it \u0301s got everything..."
