NB; application deadline April 15!
"Yoik as a starting point" at Nord University is a study developed by Frode Fjellheim and perhaps the only university study in the world where students get to work with yoik as a starting point for creating new music.
At the bottom of this is a solid introduction to yoik as a musical expression - and a basic introduction to Sami culture. Students can create their own yoiks, use elements from traditional yoik in new contexts and learn how Europe's oldest living music tradition can give you new musical ideas for your own music. the only university program in the world where students get to work with yoik as a starting point for creating new music.

During the sessions, 1 or 2 of the days will be common to all three specializations, while the last two days are set aside for specialization in the following directions: Rhythmic choral conducting, Joik or Slåttemusikk (traditional Norwegian folk music).
"Våkenatt" – by Konstellasjonen
Frode Fjellheim has created the music for "Våkenatt", an interactive all-consuming experience for tweens between the ages of 10-13.
"Våkenatt" ("Vigil"), is an more of an experience than a show. A place to find a way, a place to get lost. We are proud to present an alternative Christmas experience for an audience that does not have an abundance of cultural offerings - those who are between being children and being youths.
