Overview

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sofia Ulrika Liljegren, married surname Uttini, (1765 - December 6 1795), was a Swedish-Finnish soprano. She was likely the first professional opera singer from Finland, although she was active in Sweden. She was given the title Hovsangare. Sofia Liljegren was hired at the choir of the Royal Swedish Opera in Stockholm in 1781. In 1783, she was the replacement of Elisabeth Olin in the main part of Iphigenie de Aulide by Gluck, after which she was recommended to Gustav III of Sweden. She seem to have enjoyed a period of great popularity before it diminished during the 1790s. Her perhaps most remembered part was Clytaimnestra in Elektra by Kauffman.
