KORK med gjesteartister - Jul på orkesterplass
Årets jule-CD tar oss inn i julens mest intime rom og opp til de store høyder.
Sentrum for det hele er KORK sammen med SOLVEIG SLETTAHJELL, ANITA SKORGAN, RIM BANNA, RIKARD WOLFF OG SONDRE BRATLAND. Platen er innspilt live i Kulturkirken Jakob i 2014.
The new Christmas concept from KKV is characterized by dynamic versatility: "Jul på orkesterplass" brings us into the most intimate Christmas places and to the dizziest heights of joy and intensity. At the centre of it all is the Norwegian Radio Orchestra (KORK).
The first concerts in this series have now been released on CD, where we have enjoyed Solveig Slettahjell, Anita Skorgan, Rim Banna, Rikard Wolff and Sondre Bratland, all warmly embraced by the Norwegian Radio Orchestra. A band led by Tord Gustavsen (piano) also contributes, with Jarle Vespestad on drums, Sigurd Hole on double bass and Øyvind Kristiansen on church organ. The conductor of KORK is Christian Eggen.
On the concert CD you will hear well-loved Christmas carols such as "Stille natt" (Silent Night), "Det hev ei rosa sprunge" [A Spotless Rose] and "White Christmas", and also an entirely new Christmas song by Anita Skorgan, "Om du bare ønsker det" [If you only wish it], and we again hear Rikard Wollf's fabulous hit "Pojken på Månen" [The boy on the moon]. Sondre Bratland gives us three well-known newly arranged songs from his famous Christmas CD "Rosa frå Betlehem" [The rose from Bethlehem], and the Palestinian singer Rim Banna takes us to the cradle of Christmas with the poignant song about the little martyr Sarah. Halldor Krogh has produced the album for KKV and NRK, who are releasing the CD together.
The "Jul på Orkesterplass" concept was born in 2014. This year you will also be able to hear the sound of this great orchestra with a selection of great artists during the week before Christmas in Kulturkirken Jakob. Tickets can be obtained at www.ticketmaster.no.
