Rolf Haglund met the musical future when Byrgitta had its première in Vadstena.

“The indescribable freshness of the singers and the music speak a language – in music which is a small marvel of rich nuances, completely without irony, rhapsodically dissolved but strictly restrained, as far from Orff’s medieval Nuremburg rhetoric as one can get. I often thought of Mussorgsky, despite the small format. Unander-Scharin has developed greatly since Tokfursten. In him one can glimpse a rejuvenator of musical drama who will hopefully sail past all bunglers of musicals.”
