CALENDER

Tristan und Isolde Act 2 Debute Brangäne Helsinki Philharmonic under Susanna Mälkki 8,9/9 2022 

 

"The highlight of the evening was Jenny Carlstedts enormously beautiful and expressive sounding Brangäne.

 

Her full-bodied and warm mezzo-soprano was perfect for the role, moreover she had a perfect German pronunciation and suitably empathetic facial expressions-One can only hope she soon gets the chance to sing the role on the big international stages."

 

Mats Liljeroos HBL 15.9.2022

 

Helsinki Opera Kaija Saariaho " Innocence"

 

 “The emotional center of the performance is the waitress Tereza, and Jenny Carlstedt achieves greatnesses in this role. Her anguished body makes a convincing impression on the stage and vocally she masters the entire fireworks display, with tender melodies, dramatic outbursts and
musty low alto notes. Her scenes with daughter Markéta make the tears flow every single time.”

 

HBL Tove.djupsjobacka

 

“The strongest performance is Jenny Carlstedt's waitress, who plays a key role in the revelation of a tragic secret to the wedding party”

 

HS Hannu-Ilari lampila.

 

 

"As a dark center of energy, Jenny Carlstedt fills the stage as the despairing and furious waitress Tereza. Her voice and body in anguish . Her scenes with her dead daughter Markéta are downright painful to watch"

 

Ålandstidningen Peter Lobråten
 

Mahler third Symphony BBC Symhony Orchestra Sakari Oramo

PROMS Royal Albert Hall 19.8.2023

 

"Carlstedt’s voice was like the starlight in Mahler’s orchestral inky black sky. Fresh and clear-“

Andrew Lohmann London Unattached 20/8 2023

 

"In the darkness of O Mensch, Finnish mezzo

Jenny Carlstedt sang her pleas to mankind with luxuriantly rich warmth, characterising her soft sound first with tender love, followed latterly by imploring passion in the text. -/and Carlstedt brought convincing remorse to her depiction of the stricken St Peter."

Bachtrack.com Royan Shotton 22/8 2023

 

 

"Jenny Carlstedt, the Finnish-Swedish mezzo-soprano, seemed to take into herself all that had gone before: hers is not a large voice, but her identification with Nietzsche’s meditation on human suffering was total. As the embodiment of Earth’s sorrow - she became the focal point of the whole symphony, rather as Dame Sarah Connolly did in Sir Simon Rattle’s performance of the Second Symphony in last year’s Proms. In Urlicht, the mezzo’s passionate longing is to ascend to heaven; here, it is to find the joy that lies deeper than pain. Carlstedt seemed not to notice when the movement ended and the next began; she seemed no part of it, frozen in her D minor anguish as the choirs carolled brightly around her in F major. It was most moving; and it made the sensation of balm as the violins stole in to begin the finale all the keener."

 

-/This was music-making of a high order; and – as a performance of this work ought to be – a great experience. At the end, the mezzo-soprano Jenny Carlstedt had to wipe away tears before taking her bow. I don’t imagine that she was alone in doing so"

Seen and Heard International

23/08/2023 by Chris Kettle

"Elsewhere, Oramo brought out a raw, wild edge in the orchestra’s sound, balanced with sheer beauty, whether that was the mellifluous posthorn solo or mezzo-soprano Jenny Carlstedt’s deeply felt contribution".

The Times

Rebecca Franks

Monday August 21 2023, 12.01am, The Times

"When we , after almost two hours arrived at the works penultimate movement, Agnus Dei, Carlstedt stood up and sang the most heartfelt interpretation I have ever heard. So recognizably and vividly sung. I was deeply moved."

Bertil Blom Vasabladet October 2024
