Til hovedinnhold

Become a better musician – solo and in a band. You do live shows, sound, lights and studio recordings. Study tours to Budapest, London, tour and interrail from Zagreb to Berlin.

Rehearse, write, record, play. Repeat.

We place great emphasis on the development of your instrumental and vocal skills through a lot of interaction. We play both covers and self-made music in different band compositions or in vocal groups, and arrange concerts throughout the year.

Gigs

We will play an acoustic concert at the foot of Glittertind, a rock concert in front of thousands of children at an aid event, VIP concert for guests at a film festival, Christmas concert, intimate house concerts with cover songs in a new look, at high schools, on a longer tour and at nightclubs in Elverum.

Mentor days

We have days where we hire musicians who will teach you on your main instrument through group workshops and one-to-one lessons.

Solid replenishment in wide range

You have unlimited access to the school's recording studio, where you will learn about and work as a musician and technician. You will learn about mixing and mastering your recordings. You will learn about the production of music videos in both theory and practice. You will learn elementary music theory that is useful for all musicians.

Budapest

Mandatory: Yes

Price: Included in course price

Budapest har alt fra moderne glassfasader til slitne bakgater, bra kollektivtransport, monumenter, vintagebutikker og spa-bad! Du får spektakulær utsikt over det hele fra slottet «Fishermans Bastion» og kommer deg raskt rundt med metro, buss og trikk.

Foto og Musikk reiser sammen og vi henter inspirasjon fra hverandres fag. Vi ser flere utstillinger, blant annet verdens beste pressebilder på World Press Photo og opplever jazz-musikk i verdensklasse på Budapest Jazz Club.

I tillegg er Budapest kjent for ruinpuber, og på «Szimpla Kert» er det konserter hver kveld. Rett bortenfor ligger Soos foto – en vintage fotobutikk med masse analogt utstyr.

In addition to all the class trips, we arrange a trip for all the students to the mountain national park "Jotunheimen" the second week at school. We hike Norways second highest mountain, gather by the fireplace in the living room in the evenings, play board games, eat traditional food and get to know each other... fast.

At the folk high school, you can study almost anything – from arts to extreme sports, and everything in-between. The goal is what’s in Norwegian called "danning". A good translation might be "formation".

You will get the oportunity to develop, challenge yourself and your values, and form lasting relations. All without the pressure of grades or exams. 

Key terms for the school year are

  • Reflection
  • Equality
  • Tolerance
  • Respect
  • Democracy
  • Culture. 

We offer full-year courses, half-year course fall and half-year course spring, and our students average at the age of 19. The majority comes from Nor­way, but many others come from Europe and beyond.
