Between the texts in Wergelands stemme* (Wergeland's Voice) by Kulturproduksjoner the audience gets to listen to Hardanger fiddle, key harp, flute playing and song. Martine Lund Hoel performs her own compositions in traditional folkloric instruments, an expression appropriate for the universe of Henrik Wergeland.

Wergelands stemme by Kulturproduksjoner presents a main program which can be varied due to wishes from the commissioners, as Kulturproduksjoner has been working with a large repertoire by Henrik Wergeland. Karen Høie has worked with the texts of Wergeland through years.
