A Sveriges Radio broadcast of the Malmö Opera production, with a new Swedish translation by Ola Salo himself, who also sang Jesus. The radio recorded it on 14 and 15 February 2009 and aired it on Saturday 11 April 2009, from 5 to 7 pm, on P2 and P4. Stage direction by Ronny Danielsson and musical direction by Gareth Hudson.
The production opened in Malmö in late 2008 and worked with alternating casts: Jesus, Ola Salo or Niklas Sawström; Judas, Patrik Martinsson or Isak Kuritzen; Mary, Emma Lyrén, Åsa Fång or Anna-Maria Hallgarn; Herod, Lars Humble; Pilate, Fred Johanson; Caiaphas, Bengt Krantz or Jonas Bjerken; Annas, Håkan Mohede; Simon, Dalibor Panić or Andreas Eldeen; Peter, Glenn Daniel Nilsson. Exactly who sings on the broadcast is not published: the credits of my copy note Åsa Fång as Mary, but I cannot confirm it. Sets by Lars Östbergh, costumes by Annsofi Nyberg, lighting by Thorsten Dahn and choreography by Roger Lybeck.
There is also an official CD of this production, recorded at Benny Andersson's Mono Music studio and released at Easter 2009. My copy is the radio broadcast, mp3 at 128 kb/s; I do not know if it is the same take as the CD.
