Birgit Nilsson's first opera visit, idols and rivals in Stockholm & Vienna
Participating: Stefan Johansson director and former chief dramaturge.
In an interview for Swedish Radio in 2003, Birgit Nilsson told, among other things, about her first opera visit (truly unique repertoire!) and about early idols and rivals at the opera houses in Stockholm and Vienna. "I have never mixed work and vacation," she answered when asked if she spent all her free time in Vienna at other people's rehearsals.
Stefan Johansson tells the story with some unique sound illustrations.
