I hope you will have a fantastic Christmas this year!! Thank you all for coming to concerts, buying cd s or just watching me on tv or youtube….

If you for some reason lack some good christmas music…. here is the whole  Nordic Christmas concert, recorded in Aalborg, Denmark 3 weeks ago. Me and Carola, Melody Gardot, Michael Bolton and Jamie Cullum. Enjoy! I must say… I ve done a few tv galas over the years in quite a few countries BUT the sound quality from DR is in a division of its own!!! This is cd quality! For those in charge of Danish TV sound : I salute you!  However…. the ones writing the titles on to the tv screen may need some more training..:) God REST ye merry gentlemen…

Lots of love and and big digital hug from Sweden! Malena

Next week Peter Mattei and me do 9 x mas concerts in Stockholm. Then its off to Estonia for New Years Concerts.

Next year will be much the same as every year… Opera abroad and concerts in Sweden and around Europe.

I’m doing two Opera productions: Idomeneo ( Idamante ) by Mozart at La Monnaie/ De Munt in Bruxelles opening on march 16.

And in September it’s back to Vienna and William Christie and Les Arts Florissants for Händels Semele; with a great cast including my old friends Cecilia Bartoli  and Kerstin Avemo.

Lots of concerts too of course. Starting in Gävle on jan 5th. A concert with Stockholm Philharmonic entitled Singa a long opera will be screened live in cinemas all over Sweden on jan 14.

International highlights include Ligetis  Requiem  in Munich with Esa Pekka Salonen (may) and The Tales of Hoffman in Moscow (october) with Vladimir Jurowskij.

And yes… we re planning a new cd!
