MIDNATTSKONSERTENE
Along the extensive coast of Northern Norway, there has always been a vibrant and varied culture that people have used to express their experiences, sorrows, faith and hope. This coastal culture covers a wide range of styles and musical expressions.
We present evening concerts at the Tromsø Cathedral in downtown Tromsø where you can experience the music that exists in the coastal communities of the Norwegian Arctic. The musicians create a wonderful candlelit atmosphere in Tromsø’s most important cultural heritage building, which takes the audience on a beautiful journey through the rich musical treasures of the coastal culture and the Arctic soul.
This beautifully presented concert features psalms, folk tunes, songs, traditional Norwegian music and indigenous Sami music focusing on the past, present and future, performed by the region’s leading musicians.
The Midnight Concerts have been one of Tromsøs most popular events for more than two decades,
for both locals and visitors.
This memorable cultural event offers you a unique and close-up experience of the rich cultural heritage of our coastal communities. If you lean back and listen carefully, we hope you will gain a special insight into the soul of the Arctic.
