No, M&M (like that better than MM, if you don't mind), I'm afraid it was not von Otter that I heard!:-((
The voice, though trained, was not operatic, which would not have been appropriate for the music.Now that I think about it, there were a bunch of singers, but she was the one I remember. And what was being sung was a Nordic saga; the instruments were old-fashioned Scandinavian folk instruments.
The second record I heard, later that same evening, was just organ & voice, Sacred songs, but very modern arrangement. In one song, you could not have guessed that what was being played was an organ! I sat in the car in the driveway until the record was finished, so that I could learn who the singer was (and the organist too). Then I went in the house -- and forgot to write their names down. Drat! I HATE IT WHEN I DO THAT!!
