Mari Eriksmoen, a wonderful Norwegian soprano, performs in the most prestigious opera houses in the world: Salzburg, Vienna, Glyndebourne, Berlin, Munich, La Scala in Milan… with the most famous orchestras and conductors including Rattle, Baremboim… in emblematic roles like Pamina, Blonde, Sophie or Arabella. She receives laudatory reviews: «Mari Eriksmoen is the perfect Pamina combining undeniable charm and grace with an ideal soprano voice». To our greatest delight, she interprets famous opera arias from Handel such as: «Da tempeste» in Giulio Cesare, «E gelosia» in Serse or «Lascia chi’o pianga» in Rinaldo and Mozart such as: «Padre, germani, addio» in Idomeneo,“«Per pieta» in Così fan tutte, «Al destin che la minaccia» in Mitridate or «Deh, vieni, non tardar» in Nozze di Figaro. For the festival’s opening we have the pleasure to see her in the role of Pamina in Mozart’s «The Magic Flute» conducted by Jérémie Rhorer.
