The Northwest Edvard Grieg Society presents music by Norwegian-born composer Alf Hurum on the 100th anniversary of his immigration to Hawai‘i. Hurum was a renowned composer in Norway and was inspired by Debussy and Stravinsky. In the second half of his life, Hurum became a respected visual artist who was active in the Honolulu art scene. Featuring his compositions for men’s chorus, violin, and piano, and showcasing his paintings, this concert will explore the music and art of a man who called Hawai‘i home for over 40 years.
All are invited to gather for pūpū in the Hörmann Courtyard and 6:15 pm. The concert is free, with a suggested donation $20. In addition, we will continue to collect packaged, unopened dry goods (e.g., cereal, flour, sugar, pasta, etc.) and canned food donations for the Angel Network at each concert.
Through the generous sponsorship of the Arthur and Mae Orvis Foundation and support from other individual supporters, this concert is free. Additional donations to support this concert and the entire series are gladly accepted online (details below) or at the concert.
