Chamber Opera A fascinating, dark, beautiful and thought-provoking story conveyed through a new chamber version of Bartók’s only operatic work. Transcribed for piano and symphonic organ and translated to Norwegian, three years of work is finally culminating in a tour across Norway — the performance in Ålesund being the first festival appearance.

Artists Hege Høisæter, mezzo soprano; Magne Fremmerlid, bass; Thormod Rønning Kvam, piano; Lars Notto Birkeland, organ. Directed by Ivar Tindberg. Video and light design by Kyrre Heldal Karlsen.
