Nine Roles,
One Able Soprano
and
Abundant Conniving
By
STEVE SMITH
Published: August 1, 2007
Of the myriad challenges a soprano can set before
herself in a recital, none offer precisely the same sort of
demands as Judith Weir’s “King Harald’s Saga,”
from 1979. The work’s wide vocal range and elaborately
curling melodies require a singer with exceptional flexibility
and flawless intonation. Then there are the dramaturgical concerns:
Ms. Weir’s quirky piece is a three-act opera that includes
nine roles, all sung by unaccompanied soprano in the space of
12 minutes. [ more
