The year that went by..


Just a sweet picture to remind us of 2009!
In January I bought my Olympus.


An Arkeology had a release party at Steinway Gallery Stockholm, I went there together with Sara Love on the 20th February. Great!


BUT There we were told that there wouldn't be any The Ark performances during 2009...
What!! A gray dull year ahead... But so wrong! It became a very interesting and a lot of music even if it had to be without The Ark on stag!


A passion play with music from Jesus Christ Superstar in April. I had the honor to sing and perform Herod!



During Pentecost weekend we drove from many parts of Sweden to Jönköping to listening to Ola Salo and Åsa Fång also singing among other things songs from JCS!


During the summer I went to Stockholm a few times to listening to some music.




AND then in August it was time for the performance that Per Tengstrand had hinted on already in February!



The Leider of the Pack in Helsingborg!! Ola Salo and Per Tengstrand! Fantastic! 2 unforgettable concerts the same evening ! Even with small issues about photography. So happy to have all these pictures and also pictures of a fantastic bouquet of flowers… to remind me of that evening. Even if we had to take a D-tour through Helsingbors sjukhus the next day.

Several more performances of LOTP were held and I had the fortune to go to Uppsala! But before that I went to listening to Per at the Royal Castle of Stockholm. So different!
The next performance was in October at a very interesting place! Kammaren (The camber) in Stockholm, a very small arena for Mr Tengstrand.



And that was it I thought.
But at just the next day I was told that Ola Salos Mass Lema Sabachtani was to be performed in St:a Clara Church in UN-Day 24 October and there was an opening in the choir for a soprano! I had one week to learn it and also some other songs! No words can describe what I felt! Hard and challenging but interesting and fun!



In the middle of that we got the The Ark blog and all the expectations for 2010!

And if 2009 without expectations turned out so fine what can’t we wait the next year!

Happy New Year to You All!

2009 was a strange year. Bitter-sweet... But it's like that with any other one too ;).

I really enjoyed reading your note with so many photos. Nice written! And I don't know why but I absolutely adore this first pic in LOTP-part. You feel... kind of relaxed, looking at it. Maybe it's because of this Ola's pose, I have no idea. But it's just great (if I didn't do that yet, I'll add it to my favs on Flickr!).
And I know I'm boring with all my comments but I just love your pics. And wish you that 2010 will be even better for taking photographs! Gott Nytt År!
