Sanger ved havet | Songs by the sea

Sopranen Malinda Haslett fra University of Southern Maine besøker UiT med North2North. Hun holder en kort pop-up-performance på Norges fiskerihøgskole.

Malinda Haslett er sopran, forsker og pedagog, og leder vokalstudiene ved University of Southern Maine. Hun har sunget en rekke ledende operaroller i USA og Europa. Hun debuterte i Berlin på Konzerthaus i den tyske premieren av Ethel Smyths Prison. I forskningen sin ser hun på de franske motstandskomponistene Elsa Barraine og Claude Arrieu, og hun jobber for samtidskomponister og kvinner i musikken.

I uke 48 besøker Malinda Haslett UiT som del av North2North-utvekslingen, med Musikkonservatoriet og UArctic World Ensemble som verter. Under oppholdet besøker hun også Senter for kvinne- og kjønnsforskning. Senter for arktisk humaniora (ArcHum) og HambroHub inviterer i den forbindelse til en kort pop-up-konsert i lunsjen på Norges fiskerihøgskole.

Performance skjer foran en canvas fra vandreutstillingen Living with the Ocean som ble utviklet av Craft-lab i samarbeid med Senter for arkisk humaniora. Utstillingen viser forskning om fortid, nåtid og framtid i kystkulturer gjennom bilder og tankevekkende spørsmål.

Arrangementet er åpent for ansatte, studenter og besøkende, og du trenger ikke melde deg på. Bare stikk innom!

Malinda Haslett is a soprano, scholar and educator, and Director of Vocal Studies at the University of Southern Maine. She has sung many leading opera roles in the US and Europe. She made her Berlin debut at the Konzerthaus in the German premiere of Ethel Smyth’s Prison. Her research looks at the French Resistance composers Elsa Barraine and Claude Arrieu, and she champions living composers and women in music.

In week 48, Malinda Haslett is visiting UiT as part of the North2North exchange, hosted by the Academy of Music and the UArctic World Ensemble. During her stay she will also visit the Centre for Women’s and Gender Research.
