Opera is like sushi: Cultivating new tastes in East Iceland

Regional news outlet Austurfrétt details plans for the August 2019 performances of Fein’s opera The Raven’s Kiss in Seyðisfjörður, Iceland. Originally premiered in New York in 2011, and created in collaboration with dramatist Thorvaldur David Kristjánsson, the opera centers on life in a small fjord town in the 1890’s. The upcoming production is thought to be the first fully staged opera in Iceland’s East Fjords region.
