Bergens Munnspillorkester

Bergens Munnspillorkester - Norge (1)

A harmonica ensemble from Bergen, Norway, formed in the late 1930s and active through the war years and probably for a few years after as well. Then, decades later, it was "reformed" in 1985, and was active until at least early 2000s from some newspaper articles Ive found (maybe still active for all I know) This new Bergens Munnspillorkester has nothing to do with the original one, except of course the inspiration for the name and the type of music being played. There are no members from the old ensemble in the new ensemble for example.The 1985 BMO has one release on Discogs so far: Bergens Munnspillorkester In the booklet the first track is described as "an heirloom from the first Bergens Munnspillorkester", so it seems even this new version considers the two two separate entities (even though later in the same booklet they say "Bergens Munnspillorkester was re-established in 1985" seemingly of the opinion there that they should be considered the same orchestra).

This is the group of 15-17-year-olds who met in a urinal on Nordre Nøstekai at the end of the thirties, and who were the springboard for future superstars Kurt Foss & Reidar Bøe, also known as Radiofantomene The orchestra quickly grew large; it released its first record and had its first radio appearance within its first year. The big breakthrough came in 1939 during the Bergensrevyen on DNS. In 1942-43, a separate short film was made about the gang, recorded at the Jar film studio in Oslo. They performed at Regnbuen and Chat Noir in the capital, and acquired a large audience throughout the Nordic region, perhaps especially in Denmark. On 10 September 1941, the newspaper Politiken reviewed a show at National-Scala in Copenhagen. Raske bergensgutter on variety show - the city's funniest The Kjuagutten's theme song "Listen to de muntre toner" was created in the urinal at Nøstet, composed by Arthur Pedersen - popularly known as Lille-Caruso. He wrote the lyrics in collaboration with Rangthon Larsen and Stein Johnson - the latter best known as a track and field athlete and coach, among others. for the national skating team in the 60s. The barn boys in the top picture: Conductor Arne Vassenden (Skuteviken), Reidar Bøe (Verftet), Birger Loftås (Verftet), Kurt Bertelsen (Stølen), Leif Nygård (Nøstet) and Rangthon Lars
