The Norwegian festival Fjord Cadenza (28 August – 1 September) has announced Magne Furuholmen will be this year’s festival artist.

Fjord Cadenza is a culture festival mainly focused on classical music and a selection of contemporary music and art. It is held in the village of Skodje, a 30-minute drive from the city of Ålesund on the west coast.

In addition to presenting an art exhibition (28 Aug – 1 Sep) of woodcuts and ceramic works, Magne will headline a festive concert at the local culture house Gomerhuset on 31 August, where he’ll perform new songs from his upcoming solo project “Magnefied” and a selection of a-ha songs – joined by guest vocalists Martin Halla and Tini Flaat.

In addition to Magne, Anneli Drecker will do a set of her own songs and The Norwegian Naval Forces Band will perform a selection of classical music, conducted by Rune Bergmann.

Tickets for the event are available now at fjordcadenza.no. The venue has a capacity of only 350 people and tickets are selling fast.

Update 13/8: The main concert on 31 August is now sold out, but the festival has announced Magne will also do a free mini-concert at the opening of his art exhibition on 28 August. More info on the festival website.
