My librettist Ketil J. Zahl

My librettist is Ketil J. Zahl, and he has done a great job transforming August Strindberg´s play "Play with the fire" into a libretto. We are now planning several new projects. He has written a Richard III monologue which I´m going to compose for the barytone Per Andreas Tønder and piano forte. Malin has made the english translation, and I the german. My dream is to do Richard III as an opera with a libretto of Ketil. Ketil´s angle is Richard III as a ghost. It´s a sort of over writing, using parts of Shakespeare's famous play. But first I have to finnish an opera, a viola concerto and so on and so forth. It´s a privilege for me that so many musicians are interested working with me.
