Wiktor Sundqvist in Asle and Alida at the Royal Danish Opera
Wiktor Sundqvist sings Asle in the newly composed opera Asle and Alida, based on the famous trilogy by Nobel laureate Jon Fosse.
"The straightforward yet profound language of Nobel laureate Jon Fosse, combined with enchanting soundscapes crafted by Bent Sørensen, forms the backbone of a new Danish-Norwegian opera. This dramatic work centres on the young, fate-entwined couple, Asle and Alida."
The staging of this tale of fate is done by Sofia Jupither and the production is a collaboration with the Bergen National Opera in Norway, where the opera world premiered in March 2025.
Asle and Alida opens at the Royal Danish Opera on May 21 and will be played until June 6.
