Sempre Libera: Opera Arias

An intense debut by Norway's new opera diva! Soprano Eli Kristin Hanssveen's spectacular voice has been the catalyst for a steadily rising career, and she is known for her unique charisma and
acting talent. With Sempre libera, her first solo recording as an opera singer, Eli Kristin wishes to communicate something of the same intensity and spontaneity that the audience experiences during a performance. The program introduces listeners to a number of strong female characters through a varied and discriminating selection of arias from some of music history's most exciting operas.
