A concert performance where tradition meets the present

What happens when West African rhythms meet Norwegian folk tunes? When the pulse of the drum responds to the sound of the Hardanger fiddle, and movement becomes a common language?

Roots in Motion is a powerful concert performance where music, dance and improvisation merge in a vibrant encounter between cultures. Professional artists with backgrounds from West Africa and Norway explore commonalities and contrasts in rhythm, sound and movement – ​​creating an expression that is both deeply rooted and innovative.

Through driving rhythms, strong voices and bodies in motion, the audience is invited into a sensual journey where tradition does not stand still, but lives and changes in encounters between people.
