Sara Övinge

Violin

«Det som fascinerer meg er å få lov til å gi slipp på meg selv, å bli en del av noe som er større og annerledes. Jeg opplever at tiden står stille når jeg er på scenen. Det er magisk.»

Biography

The youngest to receive her Diploma from the Norwegian Academy of Music in 2010, winner of the Spellemannprisen for Contemporary with the album “Patientia,” former concertmaster at the Opera, and current concertmaster of the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra. And to emphasize that she excels in whatever she sets her mind to, she also has a silver medal from the Swedish Championships in Disco Dance.

This is just a snippet of Sara’s CV, so it goes without saying that she belongs here with us in Risør. You will hear her in several concerts this summer.
