11Bass/baritone Andri Björn Róbertsson brings real pathos to the tormented Craftsman
Andri Björn Róbertsson...compelling as the Craftsman.
The singers were superb throughout, all acting as well as they sang ... the Icelandic bass-baritone Andri Björn Róbertsson was imposing and dangerous in both operas.
...their interactions suddenly interrupted by the soliloquy of the mysterious Hunter Gracchus (sung with poise and gravitas by Andri Björn Róbertsson)
The Icelandic bass-baritone Andri Björn Róbertsson was outstanding as the Craftsman and Gracchus.
Malmö Opera almost never hires Swedish singers in leading roles, but instead seeks out the international market. In the new set of Rossini's Barber in Seville , we meet a Figaro from Lithuania, an Almaviva from South Africa, a Rosina from Germany, a Bartolo from Italy and a Basilio from Greece. The Swedish colors are defended by the young Elin Eriksson in the small role as Berta (and she does well).
