- "This is a fantastic opportunity that we're really looking forward to. And it's great that there's room for more singers in the new choir," says Anne Marie Almedal, producer of Kilden Ung Vokal.

Hun har tidligere ledet Agder Ungdomskor, som fra høsten av vil ønske musikkelever fra vokalgruppa i VG1 ved Vågsbygd videregående skole velkommen til det nystiftede Kilden Ung Vokal. Kilden teater og konserthus blir det nye korets faste samlingssted og korets mentorkor vil bli Kilden Vokalensemble.

New singers welcome

Aller første samling i Kilden Ung Vokal vil bli mandag 16. juni i Kilden teater og konserthus. Denne dagen blir det både sang og servering, og både nye og nåværende sangere ønskes velkommen til Kilden denne dagen.  

- We already have a solid core in the choir, but we're looking forward to the music students from Vågsbygd upper secondary school joining the team over the summer. It's also important for me to emphasize that we'll be welcoming new members from the meeting in Kilden on Monday 16 June," says Almedal.

Start in the fall of 2025 

The first rehearsal after the summer will take place on Tuesday, August 19 at 16:00 - 17:30, and there will be regular rehearsals every other week at the same time, with extra rehearsals ahead of concerts and productions. The program for autumn 2025 will be announced at a later date.

The conductor for Kilden Ung Vokal will be Hanna Balsnes from Søgne in Kristiansand. She has a bachelor's degree in singing and music education from the Norwegian Academy of Music. She is currently taking a master's degree in choral conducting at the Royal Academy of Music in Aarhus, Denmark.
