Producer seminar at the café

Today we had the first producer seminar at the café. The main goal was to teach about the different parts of the CdC experience, to ensure that each and every concert will have that special CdC touch. From verbal presentation, dress code, programming, Aksel guided the producers through an evening at the café.

Successful press conference!

The press conference was absolutely packed with people and the atmosphere was extatic!
A lot of press showed up and Bjarne, Jan, Dimitris and Aksel gave a hell of a performance making the audience go completely nuts! We are finally there! Living our dream - we have created a new and urban café where classical music reaches out to EVERYBODY...every day! A place where musicians and other artists can meet and unite forces. Many thank´s to Stephan Barratt-Due and Eirik Birkeland representing both of the music institutions in Oslo who showed up for the press conference and did a very important live radio interview!

Come, enjoy Café de Concert at Henrik Ibsensgt. 60 A, in Oslo!

Preparing for tomorrows press conference

As we're about to open our own café in Oslo, the final details before wednesday's press conference are taken care of. New logos in the windows, new menus, a small art exhibition with works by Monika Helgesen is just a few things.. Norsk Skilt-Gravering made very tasteful new logos in frosted white film. Thanks for all your help guys! Aftenposten also stopped by to do an interview.

We're all very exited about tomorrows press conference, and are looking forward to see a packed café once again! See you all there!

Café de Concert : Oslo - press conference

August 12th is the day we'll present the future of Café de Concert, the official CdC café in Oslo.

During the press conference the media and audience will get an introduction to the concept together with music performed by Bjarne Magnus Jensen, violin, Jan Clemens Carlsen, cello, Dimitris Kostopolous, piano and Aksel Kolstad, piano.

You can also enjoy the small art exhibition with works by Monika Helgesen.

After the press conference we'll have a party, of course!

We'll promise you that our very first CdC café will be a great place to enjoy music, meet old and new friends and maybe go on a date in a great atmosphere with art forms that definitely will soothe your senses.

Bring your friends and come early! The place is going to be packed!
