UiA has a long and warm relationship with Lesvos, the island in the midst of the migrant flow to Europe. Many people still arrive in the overcrowded Moria camp, among them a family with children who grew up in Hallingdal.

Four international soloists, two other choirs and Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra join the UiA Choir in the Cathedral in Kristiansand on Thursday 5 December to perform Bach’s Christmas Oratorio.
