Ringing In with Lars Bremnes and Maria Haukaas Mittet
Lars Bremnes and Maria Haukaas Mittet are once again ready to meet their audience, traveling from north to south. This year’s tour is based on their critically acclaimed Christmas album from 2021, featuring both classic carols and new songs. The suitcase is packed with winter light, Trygve Hoff’s Christmas hymn, bullfinches, and sheaves.
They introduce their new single “Den tia nå på året” (“This Time of Year”), reflecting on how changes in Christmas traditions can bring unexpected emotions. The concert “Ringing In” is inspired by the church bells ringing in Christmas, inviting all to feel welcome when the world is at its darkest and brightest at the same time. The repertoire combines new songs with traditional carols, including a bright version of “Kimer i klokker”.
Joining them on stage are their trusted musicians, with Stein Austrud as musical director. Hugo Risdal plays guitar and string instruments. The concert is presented by Heartbeat AS and Skyskraper Artist.
