“When I come on stage, something happens, like in the quality of the performance.. was like then times more, like, I had something – I’m not religious – but I had something that, some voice which is telling me how to do, what to do.., like appears and then disappears. It’s very, very strange, but it’s been always with me and especially in important roles.”

This, Anna Netrebko, the world-renowned Russian Austrian soprano, stated, on the occasion of the Official announcement of the Polar Music Prize 2020 she was awarded on 11 feb. 2020. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9dO3ky9sH8)

Insiders will argue that this is clearly related to religion, but mainly on an un- and subconscious level. In that respect, Ms. Netrebko’s experience is in some ways analogous to the story of ‘Bapuka’. (See the tab ’texts 4′, text 36.)
