Reviews / Press / Quotes *About her Countess in the Queen of Spades, The Norwegian Opera & Ballet: “A clear answer to why we should see and hear this [The Queen of Spades], comes after the first intermission when Hege Høisæter gets a musical space as the Countess.

She takes the command musically, gets the conductor and the orchestra down in pace into a musical weight and nerve. ” Hild Borchgrevink Dagsavisen 2018

About her Kabanicha in Katya Kabanova, The Norwegian Opera & Ballet: «..as the menacing Kabanicha she once again showed herself as a magnificently compelling vocal actress – standing tall, she towered over the other characters sending deadly looks in every direction…… …..one of the most powerful evenings I’ve spent in an opera house.» Bachtrack 2015
