Country Info Home Introduction General Data Maps ... Time and Date Norway : Culture Norway has preserved a valuable folk culture that retains elements from the Viking age. Norwegians today have a great interest in preserving folk art and music. The collecting and recording of folk music is supported by the government. Modern Norwegian culture has evolved from the great flowering of the arts that occurred in the 19th century under the determine of national romanticism. Early expressions of a truly Norwegian style were produced by painter Johan Christian Dahl and composer Edvard Grieg. Other valuable artists include playwright Henrik Ibsen, writer Knut Hamsun, composer Christian Sinding, painter Edvard Munch, and sculptor Gustav Vigeland, whose sculpture park in Oslo has gained international attention. Permanent theatres have been accomplished in several cities, and the state traveling theatre, the Riksteatret, organizes tours throughout the nation, giving as many as 1,200 performances annually. The Norwegian Opera, opened in 1959, requires state subsidies (as do most other theatres). Films in Norway are subject to censorship, primarily on grounds of violence and, to a lesser extent, erotic content. The production of Norwegian-made feature films is subsidized, but they usually number about 10 each year. Akershus Aust Agder Buskervd Finnmark ... AskBabyNames @ 2008 MapZones

Living in Norway / Culture External resources: Arts Council Norway Edvard Grieg (online biography) Ibsen.Net (official Norwegian Henrik Ibsen website) Culture For such a small population, Norway has an incredibly rich, accomplished and varied cultural scene, thanks in part to government funding of artists and institutions through our Arts Council Norway, which finances artists of all kinds across Norway. CLASSICAL MUSIC: Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) is thought of by most people as Norway’s greatest composer. Grieg’s music is romantic with a nationalist streak, using scales and modes from Norwegian folk music to create beautiful, modern (for its time, that is) impressionistic pieces. His most famous works are his Lyrical Pieces for piano, his Piano Concerto in A Minor and his incidental music to Henrik ibsen’s Peer Gynt. Norway also has some internationally renowned classical performers, like piano player Leif Ove Andsnes, widely regarded as one of the greatest classical music performers in the world, and winner of several Grammy Awards. He is particularly well known for his interpretations of Grieg’s music, and is often seen in Grieg’s home town of Bergen. The cellist Truls Mørk is also a well-known international performer of Grieg’s music, and is an outstanding performer both of chamber music and as a soloist for an orchestra. JAZZ: . Norway’s jazz scene is phenomenal. Everyone agrees that Norway has one of the most interesting jazz scenes in Europe, with each successive generation of musicians reinventing and creating their own musical language, from the world-influenced, almost-ambient “mountain jazz” of the 80s and early 90s through to the electronica-based period of the late 90s into the hard-bop and free improv-influenced styles of the younger generation.

Our Norwegian Heritage Norway: Culture Norway's Story: History Geography Culture ... San Antonio This page was last updated by Carolynne White March 30, 2001 Even the potato, thought of as almost as Norwegian as brown goats' cheese, originally arrived from abroad. Norwegians celebrated the potato's 250th anniversary last year. What food, then, is Norwegian? Asked which dish we think of first as Norwegian, 65 per cent of us reply meatcakes, while 36 per cent think of lamb and cabbage stew and 23 per cent reply cod. A nationwide survey carried out in January 1994, in connection with the Government's promotion "Competitive Strategies for Norwegian Food", showed distinct regional preferences where dishes are concerned. While meatcakes rank first in all regions, westerners rank potato dumplings second, and Oslo-dwellers rank "lutefisk" (dried cod steeped in lye) third, just ahead of dried mutton ribs and fresh cod.
