The Magic Flute by Mozart, From (2022/2022), Directed by Simon McBurney, Rachael Hewer,, Conductor Eivind Gullberg Jensen, Grieghallen, Bergen, Norway

Autumn 2022 we proudly present Mozart's Magic Flute, with Mari Eriksmoen as Pamina. The rising opera star Linard Vrielink makes his role debut as prince Tamino here in Bergen, and the coloratura soprano Rainelle Krause is ready for the furious fight against Wagner-bass Stephen Milling as Sarastro. Thomas Oliemans has played Papageno several times in this highly acclaimed production signed stage director Simon McBurney, and for the first time Oliemans meets Norwegian soprano Renate Ekerhovd as his beloved Papagena. With his fine sense of physical comedy and communicative singing style, the baritone Thomas Oliemans was a fine Papageno and the well-deserved audience darling of the show.
