AURORA

For the first time in Russia, Aurora Axnes will perform - a young singer from Norway with an unusual “elvish” appearance, evoking instant associations with the mystical heroines of the series “Game of Thrones”. The young star, which became a sensation in his native Scandinavia, and now far beyond its borders, fascinates listeners with its extraordinary stage performance. It is not by chance that in the vocal style of this fragile girl with snow-white hair, there are obvious echoes of the European Middle Ages. Aurora's vocal style is rooted in the unique phenomenon of the Scandinavian musical culture - “Kulning” - a special technique of singing of the Norwegian shepherd girls, who summoned cows on mountain pastures with unusual throat singing. And although Aurora is a worthy continuer of Kate Bush, Bjork, Enya and Elizabeth Fraser from Cocteau Twins, she has a unique sound, breathing an immense combination of stringed instruments, modern beats, electronic effects and classical piano.
