Norwegian Carols sung by Solvguttene

Solvguttene is a group beloved by the population of Norway. It was founded in 1940 by Torstein Grythe.

Today the chorus consists of about 50 boys and 20 men.

The boys go through an apprentice period in a separate choir, before the can become members of Solvguttene.

Solvguttene today are under the leadership of the music department of Norwegian Radio.

At the same time they have established themselves as a choir with high musical standards and extensive touring experience.

They tour the entire country, and also represent Norway in a number of cultural arrangements around the world.

Selections among the Carols (all in Norwegian, of course) on this CD include:

Julemotett

Deilig er jorden

Det kimer nå til julefest

Det hev ei rose sprunge

Deilig er den himmel blå

Glade jul, hellige jul.

Jeg er så glad hver julekveld

Jeg synger julekvad

Kling no, klokka

Her kommer, dine små

Kim, alle klokker

Et barn er født i Betlehem

A, kom nå med lovsang

Å du heilage

Marias vuggesang

Høyr kor englar syng frå sky
