Nidarholm’s roots date back to 1924 when Musikkforeningen Nidarholm was founded. The concert band united with Arbeiderbarnas Musikkorps in 1962, but in 1966 several of the band’s members left and re-established Musikkforeningen Nidarholm. Nidarholm entered the top division in the Norwegian Championship for wind bands for the first time in 2004. Since then we have managed to establish ourselves firmly in the division with four 4th places and one 3rd place in the championship of 2008, which is one of Nidarholm's proudest achievements.
On a regular basis Nidarholm has approximately 70 members. The member base is young, but people of all ages participate. We put our pride in presenting good music and are always up for new challenges. The music is varied and the last years we have played works by i.e. Astor Piazzolla, Igor Stravinsky, Eric Whitacre, John Williams, Ida Gotkovsky and Christian Lindberg. Besides the Norwegian Championship, Nidarholm holds several concerts throughout the year and every autumn we travel outside Trondheim to work with other musicians and concert bands.
This summer Musikkforeningen Nidarholm will be participating in the concert division in the World Music Contest for Harmony band. This is something we have worked hard for and we are really looking forward to taking part in the competition.
