MOORHEAD, Minn. — Concordia College’s Cultural Events will present the Oslo Chamber Choir in concert at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 2, in the Centrum at Knutson Campus Center.
Founded in 1984, the Oslo Chamber Choir has gained international acclaim for its Norwegian folk music and classical repertoire.
While the singers mainly have backgrounds in classical music, the Oslo Chamber Choir has gained international acclaim for its innovative exploration of Norwegian vocal music tradition. Known for experimentation in expression and genre, the choir also uses improvisation in its concerts, and has brought kveding, a soloist tradition, into the choir format. Individual singers in the Oslo Chamber Choir must be able to sing independently as well as creating music with others.
