June 18, 2022

The Wilhelm Stenhammar final was last night and Vera Talerko won.

The winners in WSIMC 2022!

First Prize  Vera Talerko, 

Second Prize Rebecka Wallroth,

Third Prize Yohan John Ji, 

Stenhammar Prize Erica Back

Mozart Prize      Sarah Yang, 

Audience´s Prize  Vera Talerko 

My choice often does not match the verdict of more knowledgeable judges but on this occasion it did. Eight finalists and each sang two arias. Vera Talerko also won the audience prize on the day.

Something to look forward to. Hopefully parking will not be too difficult with all the summer roadworks in Norrköping.

After listening in awe some time ago to some Russian oktavists (basso profundo), I am glad to see two bass singers making it to the final.
