The Christmas concert "Håpets stjerne" will be held at Logoskirken, Nesttun, on December 8 at 19:00.
The concert is a collaboration between musicians and the aid organization Star of Hope Norge. This evening will feature both well-known and beloved Christmas songs, as well as new and exciting songs and arrangements.
The concert will span a wide range of genres and is suitable for people of all ages.
The singers Ingrid Grøvan and Arne Pareli both have their vocal training from the Grieg Academy in Bergen and have a long tradition of performing Christmas concerts. In recent years, they have performed concerts together. Although both have classical vocal training, they also sing other genres such as pop, gospel, jazz, etc.—something the audience will experience this evening.
Ingrid Grøvan lives in Southern Norway and works as a freelance singer and vocal coach. Arne Pareli is based in the Bergen area, where he works as a freelancer, is employed at a funeral home, and studies Nordic languages.
Arnt Thyve will be the pianist for the concert. He works as an organist at Loddefjord Church. Originally from Oppdal, he has lived in Bergen for many years. He has extensive experience as a pianist and organist for various artists, singers, and choirs. We can mention 5 Staute, Redeemed, Gospelcompagniet, and Norea Mediemisjon.
Andreas Oltedal will join on cello and percussion. He works as a music teacher at Kongshaug Musikkgymnas and has previously played with artists such as Ole Børud, Samuel Ljungblahd, Emma Steinbakken, The Main Level, and Tooji.
Ragnar Løsnesløkken, the leader of Star of Hope Norge, will also inform about the organization and play bass. He has taught music and been a performing musician for many years. He lives in Fåvang in Gudbrandsdalen, where he and his family lead the work of Star of Hope Norge, a Christian aid and development organization working in 12 countries. Focus areas include education, food, clean water, and work directed at children with disabilities.
