Trygve Hoff

Bånsull i advent

The composer and musician Trygve Hoff was born and raised at Rognan in Nordland and gained a lot of inspiration for his texts from the North Norwegian culture. He is a composer and copywriter of many of our most popular songs. 'Ei hand å holde i' and 'Har en drøm' with music by Svein Gundersen and especially his own 'North Norwegian Christmas Psalm' are famous songs in Norway.

'Lullaby in advent' may not be among his most famous songs, but it's a beautiful and thoughtful melody that will fit well with any Christmas concert. Hoff himself varied with musical styles on this song. This arrangement is written as a jazz-version with swing feel.
