Biography

Nidaros Cathedral girls’ choir was founded in 1992 and is one of five choirs in the Nidaros Cathedral. The choir is identified with a high level of artistic ability and a wide range of musical expression. We participate regularly in the cathedral’s services and produce our own concerts, both in the cathedral as well as independently in other locations. The concerts are in addition to many other exciting events such as tours, competitions, festivals, recordings, national or private events, and others. The choir is comprised of approximately 85 members, with about 30 in the junior choir (ages 10-14) and about 55 in the senior choir (ages 14-19). There is also a training choir led by Johanne Bjørkhaug in connection to Trondheim's public music school. Anita Brevik is the conductor and Artistic Director. She has been with the choir since it was established in 1992 and is a constant source of inspiration for the girls. Our album MAGNIFICAT was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Surround Sound Album, and our album LUX from 2018 won a Grammy Award in the same category. In 2022 we released our latest recording, TUVAYHUN. All albums were recorded and produced by Morten Lindberg/2L. Visit our website for more information: www.jentekor.no
