Interview in Norway's largest newspaper
Last week, after the premiere of the Kurt Weill opera "Der jasager - He who says Yes", Aksel was interviewed by Norway's largest newspaper, Aftenposten. If you understand Norwegian you can read it here: http://www.aftenposten.no/kultur/Aksel-Rykkvin-vil-bli-klassisk-musikks-Justin-Bieber-8240491.html The headline translates as "Aksel Rykkvin wants to become the Justin Bieber of classical music"... I am not entirely sure what that means, but I suppose it tickled the readers' interest :)
The interview was also published in the Saturday paper edtition! And together with the web interview, a full clip of another performance of Mozart's "Alleluia" was published on Aftenposten TV, this time from the concert in Oslo Cathedral with Kåre Nordstoga. Watch it here, it may be Aksel's best version yet: http://www.aftenposten.no/webtv/#!/video/102449/her-holder-aksel-rykkvin-12-konsert
