After a few days of intensive studies for the two course leaders – Anne Sofie von Otter and the pianist Elisabeth Boström – yesterday, 8 young singers showed an extremely high level together at the Master Class concert, in front of an enthusiastic and full audience in the Birgit Nilsson hall at the Kulturhuset The ravine. Thus, the first concert of the Birgit Nilsson days has been completed.

The days continue tonight with a scholarship concert in Västra Karup’s church and Tosca in Concert on Saturday.
