Oslo Domkor, known in English as the Oslo Cathedral Choir, stands as one of Norway's preeminent choral ensembles, revered for its rich history and contribution to the country's ecclesiastical music tradition. As the resident choir at the Oslo Cathedral, the group plays a significant role in religious services and state functions, while also maintaining a busy concert schedule. Their repertoire spans a spectrum of religious music, from time-honored hymns and traditional pieces to contemporary works.

One of the group's notable releases is "Nils Henrik Asheim: Salmenes bok," an album that features modern interpretations of the Biblical Psalms, composed by the acclaimed Norwegian composer Nils Henrik Asheim. Their performances are characterized by a blend of deep musicality and spiritual depth, attributes that shine through in tracks such as "Salme 126. Da Herren vendte Sions lagnad" and "Salme 139. Hvor skal jeg gå bort fra din ånd," where they explore the human connection with the divine. Oslo Domkor's music is indicative of their dedication to excellence and the evocative expression of sacred texts through choral artistry.
