Stuck in New Zealand in a house with five others, unable to return home to the UK, the soprano emeritus is doing her bit for the planet.

Be kind, she says.

    not too bad … and how about her dogs in the UK ?
    ….any way she might cooperate with Anna Netrebko and Aida Garifullina to write a new cookbook, it could be a great success I think 😉
    Kiri’s maori pies, Anna’s meat meals and Aida’s herb tea , substantial dinner and a bunch of money to boot ( to support Kiri’s teaching activities)
    just my opinion, of course 😉

    Not a bad country to be “stuck in” at this present time.
