Luciano Pavarotti
We Love the voice of Sissel! We had the opportunity to see her “Northern Lights” special on PBS recently and adored it. It was beautifully performed and just a stunning video. We were fortunate to tape it and of course, made a special video for YouTube viewing. Have a very special treat and see this special video we have put together:
SISSEL, NORTHERN LIGHTS, HALLOWED MOUNTAINS & HYMN TO WINTER
This video performance is available for purchase at your favorite music retailer.
