We Wander Together in Herborg's songbook
Herborg Kråkevik & TrondheimSolistene
When Kråkevik's songbook was released in 2000, the album became an instant sensation. With warm and distinctive interpretations of songs such as Den fyrste song, Til ungdommen, and Blåmann, Herborg Kråkevik was hailed as Norway's number one songbird and named Spellemann of the Year. The recordings, made in collaboration with TrondheimSolistene and Helge Lilletvedt, sold over 250,000 copies and have since held a special place in Norwegian music.
Throughout her career, Herborg Kråkevik has demonstrated a rare versatility as a singer, actress, and songwriter, cementing her position as one of the country's foremost cultural figures. In 2026, she will once again be in the spotlight – both in the popular TV series Hver gang vi møtes on Norwegian TV2 in January, and with a new album and book in March.
The new album consists of Norwegian songs, and the book is a collaboration with the National Museum, where songs and paintings are collected under the title Vi vandrar saman (We Wander Together).
In the spring of 2026, Herborg Kråkevik, TrondheimSolistene, and Lilletvedt will embark on a tour with a renewed repertoire that combines classics from Songboka with newly written songs from the upcoming album.
At the opening concert of the Valdres sommersymfoni 2026, the audience will be able to experience this production, with the festival's artistic director Guro Kleven Hagen participating as the performing leader on tour for the first time.
Together, they will perform both well-known and new songs in arrangements developed especially for the tour – and for this evening in Valdres.
The concert opens this year's festival. Welcome to an evening where Herborg Kråkevik and her fellow musicians breathe new life into songs that have meant a lot to many people – and still do.
