‘Folk music is so strong that it can be used for
anything, and it is in its element when challenged and developed,’ say the members of
Dreamers’ Circus.
The group met in a pub during a folk festival
in 2009. Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen (violin) was
jamming with Ale Carr (cittern). Nikolaj Busk
happened in and joined in on the piano. This
was Dreamers’ Circus first performance.
Dreamers’ Circus is folk music of 2016 – enthusiasm and innovation founded on tradition.
They are joined by award-winning dancer
Selene Muños, who adds a fascinating visual
aspect to the music.
These three young musicians have set out on
a dream journey in the world of folk music. A
journey that includes detours to visit Sibelius,
Vivaldi, Mozart, Grieg and Nielsen – and fortunately a visit to the Bergen International Festival.

On their way here the reputation of their energetic live performances has reached far and
wide. Their concerts are attended not only by
traditional folk enthusiasts but also by young
indie and rock fans, who have had a new musical
door opened for them.

Songs of Bergen
LO G E N T E AT E R
DAT E / T IME
Monday 30 May at 22:00
World premiere of new Bergen songs
– 225 years after the Bergen anthem
Nystemten first was sung.
We really should sing the praises of our towns,
especially Bergen. Although Bergen has a
bountiful bouquet of songs narrating happenings and yearnings in streets and homes,
many of the old favourites are timeworn.
In Songs of Bergen, musician and lyricist
Gabriel Fliflet has invited Frode Grytten, Stig
Holmås and a number of other writers to create
entirely new Bergen songs – tender and burlesque, sober and nostalgic.
Gabriel Fliflet sets music to the lyrics and
performs the songs with musicians Jørgen
Sandvik, Kristoffer Chelsom Vogt and various
treasures of musical guests. The wing-man
for the evening is Bergen’s young, rhythmical
poet Erlend O. Nødtvedt, who pens new texts
for the occasion. He teases and lampoons the
songs in his own uniquely perceptive style.
Gabriel Fliflet has had a number of commissioned compositions and composed Åresong
for the Bergen International Festival in 2010
with Jon Fosse.
