When the chamber choir of the Oslo Philharmonic was disbanded in 1996, many of its members wished to continue their work as an independent choir. Oystein Fevang, who had been engaged as a soloist with the choir, was offered the job of leading the new group, which took the name Ensemble 96. The choir has had a highly successful career to date, participating in national and international choral competitions, and never coming away without a prize!
Ensemble 96 has established itself among the elite of Norwegian vocal ensembles, attracting the attention of international music critics.
"Under the masterful direction of Fevang, Ensemble 96 performs with sumptuous warmth and clarity. It is rare to find a disc of modern repertoire where all three constituent elements (the composition itself, the performance and the production) conspire to produce a work of amalgamated excellence" - British magazine Choir and Organ
