AURORA - Live in Nidarosdomen

The Nidarosdomen in Trondheim is probably the most important church in Norway, the seat of the Norwegian metropolitans and bishops for almost 900 years and the coronation site of the Norwegian kings in historical times. In 2017, the exceptional 21-year-old Norwegian singer AURORA had the honor of giving a concert in the holy cathedral, also known as the "Heart of Norway". She performed in front of a sold-out audience together with her band and the TrondheimSolistene (ensemble/orchestra), Oslo Fagottkor (choir), Petra Bjørkhaug (organist) and Ruth Potter (harpist). This concert was recorded on November 2, 2017 and broadcast by NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation) shortly after Christmas on December 28, 2017. However, some songs that were originally played that evening were cut from the broadcast.
