About Us

Oslo Global Choir (OGC) reflects the spirit of the city of Oslo - the capital of Norway, which is vibrant; diverse; dynamic and, today, a truly global city with just no looking back. Founded in 2013  and originally known as Cafeteatret World Choir; today OGC has become a choir committed to creating good music and a lasting impression with our audiences. OGC presents an eclectic repertoire at lively concerts with musical genres including pop, rock, chanson française, Norsk, Samisk, and world music.

OGC is an established amateur choir providing opportunities ranging from personal vocal training (open-to-all to artistic growth) to forming spin-off musical groups for talented musicians. OGC also collaborates with talented and accomplished musicians from Norway and around the world to create musical; educational and adventurous experiences for our members and audiences. Membership of the choir is open to those who are committed to learning how to sing; regardless of experience (beginners, amateurs and (semi-)professional musicians are welcome), and is based on an initiation and joining process.

We consider ourselves lucky to be a the house choir at Nordic Black Theatre - a small, cozy and amazing location with great accoustics, and recommend you check out the wonderful Nordic Black Theatre for their events.

Conductor


Jon Harthug

He is a great musician and a professional choir conductor. He enjoys the intersection between the roles of musician, choir leader, and teacher, and finds it stimulating to work with people.

Jon has a classical background, but has worked with all kinds of music and is always interested in expanding his palette.
