Right now, we’re raising money for a double bass
The goal of the Bus Grant is to make culture more accessible to culture enthusiasts in Norrland. The grant provides financial support for bus transportation to the Norrlandsoperan’s opera and dance performances, making it possible for culture enthusiasts from Västernorrland, Jämtland, Västerbotten, and Norrbotten to experience the performing arts up close. The goal is to break down geographical and financial barriers and encourage cultural participation. Apply through our website to enjoy simple, accessible, and enriching cultural experiences.

Yeah, of course I want to help!

Life Behind the Scenes
For nearly 20 years, Josefin Landmér has taken her place in the orchestra pit behind the double bass for the Norrlandsoperan Symphony Orchestra. Even as a 10-year-old, she was certain: she would work in music.
“When I discovered the double bass, it was like coming home.”
