OPEN SCENE ACTIVITIES

OPEN MIC EVENTS

OPEN MIC EVENTS

This is your chance to get up on stage and perform, backed by professional musicians. Choose a song or two, and we will work with you to get the most out of it. 

 

Completely open to anyone who wants to perform; bands, loose constellations and random musical collaborations that arise there and then.

 

You can also choose to just come up on stage in a more open mic setting, alone or with your friends. Have fun, sing a song, perform your piece of work for the audience. 

 

We are lucky enough to have Terje Støldal as the leader of the band for the Open Mic sessions. Since the mid-90s he has participated in concerts, recordings and television program with many Norwegian as well as international artists.

 

Be a spectator at the Kulturhuset - or perform! Either way, save the dates. 

 

January 29th 19:00

February 26th 19:00

March 26th 19:00

MASTERCLASSES

Masterclasses including special sessions will be held in January, February and March, with an additional session to be scheduled. Your creative career may be as a singer or musician, - or any other of the many careers within creative industries such as film and music.

 

These include IT, finance, booking, sales, management, security, sound, lighting, IT and not least – leadership and project management. 

 

At these Master Classes, young musicians, bands and vocalists in Halden meet professional musicians in a specially designed rehearsal room and practice together and prepare for the open stage. In addition, special sessions will be held by guest instructors.

SEMINAR: KEEP WHAT YOU CREATE

In this seminar, you will enjoy information and examples, showing how you can better prepare to “Keep what you create”. Your Intellectual Property (IP) is yours – but you must understand and protect it!

 

This seminar will provide examples and information that will make it easier for young people to understand how they can project their creative IP (songs, text, ideas, concepts), providing a start point for sustainable career development.

 

Instructor Per Ole Hagen has had a successful career within the creative industries – film, music, photography as well a long-time lecturer at the University of Oslo, Norway. He also worked as the Manager of Music Rights for 8 years at NRK. His focus has been both practical and legal as well as being career-oriented from the student’s perspective.

Stayed tuned for more information about this exciting event, planned sometime in early autumn 2025.

 

LSROK is more than just creating music. We will invite participants to learn more about how the music industry is structured and what it takes to be a music event. It will be a fun and useful event for both young people considering a career in the events industry, but also for many other career choices.

 

This concert event will feature a nationally known band who will perform, while engaging LSROK students as both support as well as performers. Be a part of developing an exciting team project!
