Streaming

If you are unable to attend the Norwegian Academy of Music in person, it will be possible to follow the trial lecture and the disputation through streaming. The stream will not be recorded.

We encourage the audience to attend in person because in most cases a stream will not be an adequate alternative to being present in the auditorium. This is a relatively simple production, which may cause limitations related to sound and video quality. Please note that some errors may occur.

The trial lecture

The trial lecture will be held in the auditorium at 10:15 the same day. See separate event.
