Spotlight on Kirsten Ragstad
1995 marks the centenary of the birth of the Norwegian soprano, perhaps best remembered as one of the great Wagner sopranos of the century.
She also left a large legacy of song recordings, particularly of Scandinavian songs. lain Burnside dips into her discography and plays music by Grieg, Sibelius, Mahler and, of course,
Wagner.
