Concerts Norway’s INTRO-programme includes musicians from the classical, jazz and folk sectors, and involves a number of key players on the Norwegian music scene. MIC Norway’s INTRO-Composer programme features two young talents that will be supported over a three-year time-frame, enabling the composers to establish themselves on the domestic as well as international scene through commissioned works, networking and informational initiatives.
