The music program offers highlights from the classical repertoire. From Chopin we mention his Preludes, op. 28, his Etudes op. 25 and not least his Piano Sonata No. 2 in B minor with the famous Funeral March.

From Beethoven we mention two of the late quartets, no. 12 and 16.

There will also be solo piano music by Mozart and his wonderful quartet no. 22, K. 589.

And we are talking about experiences in Lofoten, but in beautiful venues such as Lofoten Cathedral, Svolvær Church, Stamsund Church, Buksnes Church and Borge Church.

Welcome to the Lofoten International Chamber Music Festival 6.7 - 11.7 2026!
