Siri Karoline Thornhill, born in England, is a Norwegian classical soprano for concert and opera, known for singing music of Johann Sebastian Bach. == Professional career == Thornhill studied singing first in her hometown Stavanger with Marit Storækre and continued with a scholarship from the Norwegian government at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague with Marius van Altena, Rita Dams and Diane Forlano. In 1995 she graduated with distinction. She took master-classes with Cristina Deutekom, Elly Ameling, Ton Koopman, Beata Heuer-Christen, Anna Reynolds and Jean Cox. Thornhill has recorded Bach cantatas with Sigiswald Kuijken and La Petite Bande, the soloists also forming the choir.〔 With them she performed among other cantatas Bach's cantata for the fourth Sunday after Trinity, ''Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ'', BWV 177, at the Rheingau Musik Festival in the Eibingen Abbey. She appeared in Antonio Lotti's ''Requiem'' with the Thomas Hengelbrock's Balthasar-Neumann-Chor, and in Handel's ''Messiah'' with the Knabenchor Hannover conducted by Jörg Breiding.

In 2009 she recorded the Bach solo cantatas for soprano with the Cologne Chamber Orchestra and the Cologne Bach Chorus, conducted by Helmut Müller-Brühl, reviewed by George Chien: "The present disc reveals an appealing vocal quality—clean, agile, superbly controlled, secure throughout the range—serving an appropriate understanding of the texts." Thornhill has sung Baroque opera parts, such as Clomiri in Handel's ''Imeneo'' with the Capella Augustina conducted by Andreas Spering at the Halle Opera House, in Rameau's ''Dardanus'' in Freiburg, in carnival music from Venice and Florence with Hengelbrock at the Komische Oper Berlin, in Alessandro Stradella's ''San Giovanni Battista'' at the Quedlinburg Cathedral, and in Reinhard Keiser's ''Sieg der fruchtbaren Pomona''. In August 2006 she made her debut as Donna Anna in Mozart's ''Don Giovanni'' with Sigiswald Kuijken at the Festival de l'Opera in Beaune and the Bruges Early Music Festival. She has also appeared in opera premieres of the 20th and 21st century such as ''Odysseus's Women'' of Louis Andriessen in Rotterdam and Amsterdam.〔 She has appeared at international festivals such as the Handel Festival Halle, the Handel Festival Göttingen and the Lucerne Festival.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Siri Thornhill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
