Pianist and entertainer Sjur Hjeltnes is well-known all over Norway, notably for his regular appearance in a humourous show on national tv.

Hjeltnes is classicaly trained at the Grieg Academy in Bergen and Ecole Normale de Musique in Paris, and his repertoire spans from Deep Purple to Fartein Valen. At Den Nationale Scene in Bergen, he was maestro di cappella and actor in 2011, and the year after he had his own show at Logen Teater.
