Programme Note
The Norwegian pianist presents her latest programme, "Nordic Unrest" with piano pieces by Edvard Grieg, Geir Tveitt and Atli Heimir Sveinsson. In these pieces the composers aimed to capture either elements within the dramatic Nordic nature or reflect tales or creatures originating from mythology and folklore. In addition, the programme includes pieces reflecting an inner unrest from the characters described or the composers themselves.
Oda Voltersvik “… an extraordinary Scandinavian artist!” (Per Brevig, Musicians Club New York) - has performed at international venues such as Carnegie Weill Recital Hall and the Norwegian Opera House. Oda received the Norwegian Arts Council's honourable work grant for 2021 and 2022. She holds a Masters in Performance from the Royal College of Music and an Artist Diploma from Trinity Laban Conservatoire (London).
