"Bakken's timing and sense of rhythm are top notch, her three-octave voice shines fresh like water in the higher registers, and in the lower alto registers it unfolds a sensuality as warm as dark velvet." (Stuttgarter Zeitung 1/23)

When Rebekka Bakken sings, you know very quickly that you are hearing one of the most impressive voices in Scandinavia. This woman is simply a singing sensation! Rebekka Bakken's music is as magical as the winter landscape of Norway. It translates the archaic calm of deep blue fjords and the dreamily sublime glow of the Northern Lights. A winter Christmas Eve full of deep emotions.

Prinzregententheater

The Prinzregententheater, or Prince Regent Theatre, is a theatre and opera house located at 12 Prinzregentenplatz in theBavarian city of Munich, Germany.

 

Initiated by Ernst von Possart, the theatre was built in the Prinzregentenstrasse as a festival hall for the operas of Richard Wagner near an area where a similar project of King Ludwig II had failed some decades before. Named after Luitpold, Prince Regent of Bavaria the building was designed by Max Littmann and opened 21 August 1901 with a production of "Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg" by Richard Wagner. Like the Bayreuth theatre, the auditorium was designed to Wagner’s specifications, however an amphitheater has replaced the loges.

 

After the destruction of the Nationaltheater during World War II, the Prinzregententheater housed the Bavarian State Operafrom 1944 to 1963 even though it also suffered damage during the war which was not repaired until 1958. Since its renovation in 1988, the Prinzregententheater, with 1122 seats, has served also for the Bavarian Staatsschauspiel and now houses the Bavarian Theatre Academy founded by August Everding. Another theatre in the building, the Akademietheateror Academy Theatre, seats 300.
