New Artistic Director in first video interview

June 2021

Susanna Stranders, the new Artistic Director of Cameratina, spells out her vision for her first major project, Viardot200.

“Pauline Viardot was an extraordinary woman, one of the first international divas, a hugely accomplished composer in a time when women’s achievements were undervalued, and a Spaniard hosting one of the most glittering artistic salons in France.”

In this extended interview, Susanna introduces herself, her attachment to Viardot’s music and offers a teaser performance of the new Jeremy Sams translation of Cendrillon.
