Time - 20.00 (CET, Central European Time)

Nordic Voices

Artistic creativity, versatility, technical precision – these are the primary ingredients of the perfect recipe for a performing arts ensemble. One other ingredient, that indescribable something that we tend to call audience appeal, makes the picture complete. These are precisely the elements that make up Nordic Voices, a six-voice a cappella group that has been making waves not only in Norway, but in places as far afield as Japan, Taiwan, Bolivia and USA.

In this program Nordic Voices presents music from the a light side. The program is about love, about comfort and about playfulness. It is about focusing on the good sides of life, and about singing music that makes our cheeks go a little bit redder, and our heart a softer.
