The steep mountains, gorgeous fjords and mysterious glaciers are the cradle of the unique Norwegian culture, history and musical traditions. The world-famous composer, conductor and violinist Henning Kraggerud will once again meet the Macao Orchestra as a conductor and solo violinist, presenting the authentic “sound of Norway” with works like the antique classic The Holberg Suite by Grieg, the touching Suite in A minor by Christian August Sinding, the lively Nordic Norwegian Dances by Johan Halvorsen and the imaginative modern piece Equinox by Henning Kraggerud himself.

Approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes, including one interval
