Bergen National Opera has issued an Easter Hymn from Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana sung by the Edvard Grieg Kor, company soloists and child members of its talent programme.

What’s different is the dramatic use of sepia postcards to create an atmosphere of unreachable Italy. Of all the from-us-to-you videos that have been sent our way, this is visually the most imaginative by far.

The soloist is called Elisabeth Teige. She’s going places. Watch this space.
