Aurom is three voices and a love for the power of expression in all our voices
The trio collects timeless songs from their tradition, and brings them into their own Aurom-universe. They compose new songs inspired by the old, and the many glorious vocal traditions in the world. Their music always has a touch of spontaneity and improvisation, because the best music is the one happening in the moment. Their arrangements influenced by the ability of a voice to say so many things without a single word. Their texts are inspired by the conflicts within, the flickers of ultimate happiness, the complexities of being human. Now and then.
Aurom is Malin Alander, Ingebjørg Lognvik Reinholdt and Guro Utne Salvesen
Aurom released their first album “Utan å dirre” on Nye Nor label on May 7th 2021. Listen on Spotify or Deezer, buy on Bandcamp or Apple Music
In 2022 , Aurom is on a Norwegian tour starting at Førdefestivalen 9th of July, with new music composed by the trio, in collaboration with composer Agnes Ida Pettersen, author agnes Ravatn, and as always, the beautiful traditionl music woven into it. The concert is named “Oh, weak mind”, and is inspired by interpretations of traditional stories of being seduced or going searching for a way into the mountain, into another world.

Aurom – O, svage sind
Tingingsverket «O, svage sind» er eit samarbeid mellom vokaltrioen Aurom, komponist Agnes Ida Pettersen og forfattar Agnes Ravatn. Verket utforskar det skjulte og ville i oss sjølve, i møte med eigne krav og omverda sine rammer og rytmer. Tematikk og inspirasjon spring ut frå tolkingar av bergtakingshistoriar og naturmytiske ballader.
