The live, original cast recording of the stunning new musical from songwriters Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of ABBA fame.
Following the international success of Mamma Mia and Chess, Benny and Björn started work on Kristina. Originally produced in Sweden, this critically acclaimed musical production has won numerous awards and is the most popular musical theatre piece in Swedish history.
Kristina is the inspiring tale of one woman and her family’s struggle in Sweden which results in their subsequent emigration to America in search of a better life. The story is compassionately told through the stirring music, written by Benny Andersson and with lyrics by Björn Ulvaeus and Herbert Kretzmer.
The cast is led by the original ‘Kristina’; Helen Sjöholm and features incredible performances from Russell Watson, Louise Pitre and Kevin Odekirk.
The epic masterpiece made its UK premiere for one night only in concert at the Royal Albert Hall on 14th April 2010 and the two disc recording, live from the US premiere at Carnegie Hall in 2009.
