The ASC was lucky enough to welcome acclaimed Icelandic baritone OLAFUR SIGURDARSON to our Adjudication Panel this year. Olafur was in Australia as part of a cultural exchange between the governments of Australia and Germany. Since 2008, Olafur has been a principal soloist in the ensemble of the State Opera House of Saarland and he has appeared in leading roles and in concert engagements throughout Europe and around the world.

Wonderful!!! Bravo!!
Olafur , I miss you in the Saarbrücken Theater ! You are sooo good ...
He was a Goosebump-giving Scarpia ...
Oh, my. Such a great performer. Can he sing today? I could have fixed those problems in an hour, but it's probably too late now.
@@mndx1050 It's cute when you try. No elitism, and I know about the festival and house. I don't think I was talking about his paycheck; his singing is in trouble. Enjoy your cd's and don't talk about things you do not understand.
@@mndx1050 Oh, my. You are an idiot and probably an "opera queen". You know nothing, and I can tell that from your words and how you use them to, well, never mind. If you want help about music or voice I will try to advise a bit.
Wonderful!
And he sang Papa Gernont in La Traviata, in a concertant Aufführung, and that was my first Live Opera Experience. And his voice was sooo strong, that it hurted nearly in my ears, even though I was sitting in one of the last Places in the 2.Rang ganz oben. And it was so goosebumping. And that was the experience that is responsible for my Love and Fascination for Opera for ever 😊
Ooooooooh, the Conductor was our Chief Conductor toooooooo, and he is away 😢 he was/is soooooo cool, the coolest conductor ever ... Come back to Saarbrooklyn :O
Is anyone listening? No support or depth to the sound.
Interesting usage of the word „renowned“ in the title. I never knew that renowned meant virtually unknown… I guess you live and learn.
