She will be Artist in Residence at the Bodensee Festival, and will curate Manchester Camerata’s UpClose series.
In addition to her concert appearances, Tine also curates her own festival, Tine@Munch, which was launched in June 2013 in celebration of the 150th anniversary of the birth of fellow Norwegian, Edvard Munch. A three day event in Oslo’s Edvard Munch Museum, the festival featured performances from such instrumentalists as Leif Ove Andsnes, Nicola Benedetti and Truls Mork. In the 14/15 season, Tine also curated her first music series for the Leeds International Concert Season, featuring performances by guest artists and programmes inspired by Norwegian themes.
