Totally unaware that Chelsea Walfe (vocal/guitar) performed before intermission.
No wonder the lobby was full of people during the first hour of the concert, buying drinks and T-shirts.
Quite a few in Holloween costumes even with fake blood.
8:30pm, the Norwegain Group came on stage. Total 6 men 1 woman. 3 of the men have very long hair, and swing their heads often to showcase the flowing hair.
4 giant lights towards the group, casting long shadow onto a screen.
There's also a video projection on the screen from time to time. Both are employed very well.
The group plays nordic music. Melodic but simply tunes, orchestrated in big sound and reverberration, conjuring up the soundscape of a vast land.
They use ancient instrucments, like this pair of bronze Lur, and this very long birch Neverlur.
Here's Einar Selvik, the lead singer, playing a Kraviklyra.
At the end of the concert, Selvik gave a short speech: worship the nature, embrace the difference.
Then he played a lullaby solo on his lyre.
The tune is very similar to the rest of the music.
I really enjoyed the concert and all these interesting instruments. Almost full house.
