Guest Artists

Sissel Kyrkjebo
Sissel's rich and varied career has spanned over 20 years. She has performed in front of royalty and heads of state, shared the stage with superstars of every musical genre: classical stars, punks, pop idols and rappers. Highlights include singing the Olympic hymn at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, representing Norway at the Nobel Peace Prize Gala Concert, and performing at the first Christmas concert in Moscow after the fall of the Soviet Union, invited by the great tenors Placido Domingo and José Carreras.

When Norway celebrated its 100th anniversary of independence in 2005, Sissel was invited to represent Norway on the longest running program in history “Music and the Spoken Word” recorded with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at the Temple Square.

They invited her back in 2006 as special guest to their annual Christmas show “The Spirit of the Season”. Sissel recalls the return engagement as a 'homecoming'. The recorded result was the concert CD, Spirit of the Season which raced up the Billboard Classical Charts to #1 within 5 weeks of its release. The concert was aired nationwide on PBS right before Christmas 2007 and released as a DVD.
