Det Norske Jentekor

Det Norske Jentekor, known in English as The Norwegian Girls Choir, represents the pinnacle of choral music in Norway, renowned for their pure tone, lyrical voices, and deep-rooted musical artistry. Established with the aim to inspire and spotlight the potential of young female voices in the choral music scene, Det Norske Jentekor has, over the years, grown into a respected and influential institution within the Norwegian and international choral communities. Comprised of girls and young women from the Oslo area, these performers range in age, coming together to form a rich, cohesive sound that transcends the generational divide.

With an impressive and diverse discography, Det Norske Jentekor consistently showcases their versatility through projects that honor Norwegian choral traditions while also embracing contemporary pieces. Records such as "Stille grender" and "Folketoner" deeply root the ensemble in the Norwegian folk genre, displaying their dedication to preserving cultural heritage. Conversely, albums like "The Beauty That Still Remains" and "Witch Mass" reflect the choir's ambitious pursuit of challenging, modern repertoire. Projects like "Knut Nystedt: Torø liti" honor the work of seminal Norwegian composers, while "Julens Hjerte" highlights their ability to tenderly interpret the warmth of Christmas music. Under the esteemed leadership of skilled conductors, Det Norske Jentekor has not only achieved national acclaim but has also earned the admiration of an international audience, contributing to the global choral landscape with their exquisite performances and recordings.
