The Crescendo Scholarship was established in the spring of 2024 and awarded for the first time that same year to KSO violinist Jonas Båtstrand. This was for a project aimed at presenting forgotten chamber music by Norwegian composers.
Terje Boye Hansen was supposed to be present at this concert to talk about his work with forgotten Norwegian music. Unfortunately, he passed away, but the musicians are transforming this concert into a journey through Norwegian music for violin and piano in memory of Terje’s inspiring passion for bringing these forgotten Norwegian works to light.
Naturally, tonight’s program features works by composers whom Terje was passionate about. Welcome to a journey through Norwegian music!
