Midnight Concert: Silje Nergaard
– a midnight concert filled with warmth, musicality and timeless elegance.
As the bells approach midnight and Kongsberg Church is bathed in golden light, Silje Nergaard takes the stage with her warm voice and timeless presence. With her, she is accompanied by her regular, virtuoso band – Helge Lien, Finn Guttormsen and Jarle Vespestad – three musicians who know the music and each other inside out.
On her new album TOMORROW WE'LL FIGURE OUT THE REST (2025), Silje returns to jazz – to the melodies, stories and emotions that have always been at the core of her artistry. The songs are written with love for the classic jazz tradition, but with an expression that is unmistakably her own.
Silje Nergaard is one of Norway's most distinctive vocalists - loved both here at home and internationally for her distinctive tone and ability to convey the intimate. In Kongsberg Church, the audience will experience new songs side by side with classics such as Be Still My Heart, Dance Me Love and Lullaby to Erle. A midnight concert that promises magic, warmth and moments where time stands still.
