The Norwegian Soloists' Choir
The Norwegian Soloists' Choir is an innovative young ensemble, steeped in a rich history. As one of Europe's leading chamber choirs, they perform spectacular concerts in Norway and abroad, in concert halls and churches, in caravans and in abandoned factory venues. The Norwegian Soloists' Choir consists of 26 hand-picked, professional singers who have a tremendous ability to blend their voices, resulting in a highly distinctive choral expression. Along with its celebrated artistic leader Grete Pedersen, the choir achieves ambitious artistic goals through constant development.
In 2018, the album Bach: The Motets received the prestigious French prize "Diapason d'or de l'année". This was the third time the choir has been awarded the Diapason distinction. The choir's recording of Meins lebens licht was nominated for a Spellemann Award, often referred to as the Norwegian equivalent to a Grammy. The choir has also been named "Performers of the Year" by the Norwegian Society of Composers.
