Sunnfjord Youth Big Band Performed First Concert at Larris

Following multiple weekend camps and practice sessions, the youth big band at Sunnfjord Culture School is finally ready for its first concert at Larris venue on Sunday, November 8, 2026, Firda reported.

  • Young musicians in Sunnfjord spent countless hours rehearsing ahead of their public big band showcase.
  • The Sunnfjord Culture School ensemble prepared through structured weekend practice sessions before hitting the stage.
  • Sunday marked the group’s debut performance at the local Larris venue in Førde.

Many weekend gatherings and focused rehearsals culminated in Sunday’s performance.

Playing in a big band requires tight coordination and collective timing across brass, woodwind, and rhythm sections. For the student ensemble, mastering this dynamic ensemble playing was the primary hurdle during the lead-up to Sunday.

Student musicians performed live at Larris on Sunday, Firda reported. The venue provided a professional setting for the culture school’s young talent to showcase their repertoire.

Band members Hallgeir Dvergsdal Kirkeeide, Theo Bjørndal Osland, and Hella Hôllige have had fun playing together in the big band, as noted by Firda. Their enthusiasm carried through the final preparations leading up to the weekend concert.

With their debut performance now behind them, the student big band concludes a rigorous chapter of preparation and marks a notable live music milestone for the local culture school.
