Ernman + Weill = yes!!


Take a moment and listen to this Swedish mezzo soprano, in Youkali by Kurt Weill. There is nothing this singer cannot do. She sings coloratura arias while rollerskating on stage. She moves effortlessly from Carmen to cabaret songs to Ellington and back to Schubert. Her name is Malena Ernman and she is simply stunning.

Seek Maureen Forrester from Canada, born 1930. Heard her on the radio this morning. Sounds like Kathleen Ferrier!
