Norwegian Folk Music is a full credit (30ECTS) one semester programme designed for foreign students with an interest in Norwegian Folk Music. The main goal of the programme is to give students a thorough understanding of the roots of, influences on and performance of Norwegian Folk Music.
The main sources of this music will be discussed in a broad academic perspective, where musicology, cultural history and sociology are used to create an integrated theoretical basis for learning.
The programme is designed around three modules:
Lectures, field study, seminars, individual instruction on main instrument, group instruction.
The language of Instruction is English.
The study programme may be combined with other higher education programmes within the cultural sphere or form a part of a BA degree. The programme may be used as an approved exchange semester from a student's studies in his/her home country. The programme gives access to an international network of folk musicians and folk artists and may open the way for further careers in this sphere.
