Lena Måndotter was born in Sweden but has spent a lot of time travelling abroad. Paris is her favourite european city and Tibet a country she cares for very much.

For many years she also lived in a little mountain-village on the island of Crete in Greece; where she has composed songs and poems which are to be published later on this year or 2009.

Besides being a singer Lena has also created a series of poetical music-performances. These creations had different titles but they were really all inspired by the greek myth of Orpheus. Not the commonly known version where Orpheus looses himself in the underworld. Instead the still ”seemingly” unknown (older and original) version where Orpheus actually returns safely from his journey, guided by his divine musical strength.

Lena trained as a singer at the Royal Society of Arts in London UK and she has also studied literature, drama, film and the Greek language at the University of Lund Sweden. Sometimes she works a guest-teacher in singing and has taught at, for example, The Royal College of Music in Stockholm.

During breaks from touring; Lena spends a lot of time with photography and you can check out some of her pictures from Tibet, Paris and Crete on this website.
