Tore Renberg & Christian Ihle Hadland – «Ein kveld i regi av kunstens intelligens»

At the top of the travel chest lie Renberg's poems and a bundle of piano pieces. Music and poetry will meet in widely different ways. They will hold each other in mutual iron grip, dance gently, or chatter away in earnest frivolity. Here comes the ode to the unborn grandchild, the theft-pack ballad about the clumsy youngsters and the funeral oration for the Trønder who got a passport to hell. In natural interplay with Domenico Scarlatti and Harald Sæverud.

TORE RENBERG AND CHRISTIAN IHLE HADLAND
An Evening Under the Auspices of Artistic Intelligence / «Ein kveld i regi av kunstens intelligens»

In 2026, Tore Renberg and Christian Ihle Hadland set out on the kingdom’s highways under the auspices of artistic intelligence.

At the top of the travel chest lie Renberg’s poems and a bundle of piano pieces. Music and poetry will meet in widely different ways. They will hold each other in mutual iron grip, dance gently, or chatter away in earnest frivolity. Here comes the ode to the unborn grandchild, the theft-pack ballad about the clumsy youngsters and the funeral oration for the Trønder who got a passport to hell. In natural interplay with Domenico Scarlatti and Harald Sæverud.

Welcome to a laid-back, wide-ranging and wonderfully competent evening, spiced with anecdotes and dialogue between the artists.

The tour crosses municipal boundaries throughout 2026, and we are pleased to open the doors for Tore Renberg and Christian Ihle Hadland, two of our finest in their fields. This is not to be missed.


 

About Tore Renberg:

Tore Renberg (b. 1972) is one of our time’s most central authors. A broad readership knows the iconic novels about Jarle Klepp, the outré Teksas series and the psychological mystery novels Du er så lys, Tollak til Ingeborg and Lorden. In 2023, he published the historical novel Lungeflyteprøven, and in 2025 came his first poetry collection, Øie=Viise, 1720. Renberg’s authorship is known for its extraordinary range, polyphonic linguistic sense and strong empathy with the human mind. The Stavanger author has received numerous literary awards, and several of his novels have been adapted for film and theatre. His books are published in 26 countries. In spring 2025, Renberg was appointed festival poet at De Litterære Festspill in Bergen.


 

About Christian Ihle Hadland:
Christian Ihle Hadland sat down at the piano as an eight-year-old, and has since built a reputation as an excellent soloist and chamber musician. His international breakthrough came when he was selected as a New Generation Artist by the BBC in 2011, and concluded the engagement with a celebrated concert at The Proms in London. He has performed with several of Europe’s leading orchestras and conductors, but is particularly fascinated by the greatness in music’s small format, something he enjoys as artistic director of the chamber music festival in his hometown of Stavanger. Hadland’s repertoire stretches from English Renaissance to Norwegian contemporary music, but he is most at home with the great classics: Mozart, Schubert, Chopin and Bach.
