Reports
Hebert attended live the concet and kindly wrote the following report for the blog

Yes, I have done it. Yesterday I arrived at Santa Cruz, and tonight I have been to the concert of Anna and Erwin at the spectacular Auditorio de Tenerife. This building is unique. Outside it looks like a ship and like a huge wave, and the concert hall has an outstanding acoustic. I have never heard an orchestra play so clear like the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia with its conductor Vladimir Spivakov.

The concert was sold out (more than 1.600 people, many of them were German pensioners who spend the winter on the sunny “Canarias” with 23-25 degrees Celsius).

The programme was a bit unspectacular. Anna has sung most arias many times before (e.g. “Oh Dieu! Que de bijoux!” from Faust, “Il bacio”, “O mio babbino caro”, “Song to the moon” from Rusalka), but two of the three duets with Erwin Schrott were new: “Lippen schweigen” from the operetta Die lustige Witwe, and “Bess you is my woman now” from Porgy and Bess.

Anna seems to have the time of her life – her voice is brilliant, and the first thing she did when she entered the stage was to put the microphone, which was standing at her place, far away, because she did not need it.

In the first part she wore a wonderful dark-blue dress, and in the second part it was the pink dress she had worn e.g. in Vienna at Ioan Holenders farewell gala.

Because the audience was a bit “lame”, it took some time until the people woke up. The highlights of the evening were the three encores…

Anna began with “Meine Lippen, die küssen so heiss”. She had a bouquet of roses in her arms and threw rose buds into the audience. At the end of the song she threw the whole bouquet, and some lucky person caught it.

Erwin was to follow – he sang a tango and got huge ovations for it.

Finally the orchestra played a Spanish melody (Anna and Erwin were standing behind the orchestra and listened to the music), and this piece was full of fire – so at the end the whole audience stood up for standing ovations.

After the show I met Anna and Erwin at the stage door. I greeted Anna “from Carlos from Barcelona”, and she told me to send you her best regards!

I am going to attach some photos of the concert and also of the Auditorio (there has been one small change in the programme: Erwin did not sing “Votre toast” from Carmen, but something Spanish which I did not know).
