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 Haendel 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.
