Ingar Bergby

**Ingar Bergby** is a Norwegian conductor celebrated for his dynamic interpretations and dedication to showcasing Nordic classical music. With a knack for breathing fresh life into both contemporary works and hidden gems, he’s become a go-to collaborator for orchestras and soloists exploring Norway’s rich musical landscape. Bergby served as Chief Conductor of the Norwegian Radio Orchestra (2013–2020), where he championed composers like Lasse Thoresen and Ketil Hvoslef (featured in releases like *Adventuring the Intangible* and *L'homme armé*), blending modern textures with folk-inspired traditions.

Known for his approachable energy and curiosity, Bergby often highlights lesser-known Norwegian orchestral works (check out *Norwegian Opera Overtures* or *La Flûte Norvégienne*) while collaborating with soloists to create vibrant, genre-crossing projects like *Singing Oboe* or Anna-Lena Laurin’s *Quests*. Whether leading operas, symphonies, or experimental pieces, his passion for storytelling through music makes him a standout voice in Nordic classical circles.
