About Royal Norwegian Navy Band
Artist Biography
One of several military bands maintained by Norway's armed forces, the Royal Norwegian Navy Band continues to play a visible role at ceremonies and parades. The group has also enjoyed a successful recording career, issuing albums of classical wind band music, popular songs, marches, and more.
It plays roughly 150 concerts a year, for both military and civilian audiences. Its recording career began in 1999 with the album Crossover, not so much a crossover-genre album as a collection of contemporary Scandinavian wind band pieces. Its 2002 follow-up, In the Navy, however, included military-themed pop songs, and since then the group has mixed classical and popular genres with unusual ease. It has recorded for the SRC label, Naxos, MPR, and 2L. ~ James Manheim
