Snakker ikke Norsk, sunday 21st of March

We are off to a long Easter break, but we are going to keep you entertained with the best from our archives. Our last show before the break was filled to the brim:



Aneta reported on the Thriller dance record that takes place in Prague, Czech Republic, later this year. For more information, join the facebook group.



Maya invited two members from the Norwegian Azerbaijani Youth Organization, who arranged a special spring equinox concert in Oslo this week. Here, we also heard a piece of Norwegian music, Anitra's dance from Edvard Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite, performed on a tradtional Azerbaijani instrument, the tar.



Ioana went to Blå to dig into the illustrious history of Oslo's biggest quartet, Frank Znort Quartet. Every sunday Frank Znort Quartet puts their very special spell on Blå and its audience with their mix of jazz, swing, blues and world music. But there is far more to the band than meets the eye.



Finally, Nurallah sought out an academic perspective on Norwegian society and sat down to talk to UiO researcher Thomas Hylland Eriksen about some hard questions: Norwegians oil - blessing or curse? Are immigrants a problem? And what exactly are the Norwegian core values?

If you missed our show today, catch the rerun on monday 12-13, or listen to our show as often as you want at www.radionova.no.


HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
