OMG... That's literally the one concert I would envy someone for having been to. But I'm also very happy for you and all the other members of the audience.
Aurora is ALWAYS awesome live, but I think this might be the best performance she's ever done. Absolute perfection from start to finish, and the production is outstanding. I think the fact that this was performed in a cathedral is why the audience was "polite." Life on Mars is a David Bowie song.
@@BethThereseReacts They were actualy ask to stay quite, tv captation and such church deserved respect. The leader of that cathedral were not very open to get a concert in, so the team of tv, band etc, had to respect few things.
Aurora is the epitome of having every aspect of an artist. Her voice is so soul soothing and incredible. She writes incredible songs all the time. She does not care what anyone thinks about it. She performs from the heart always. She expresses herself honestly and amazingly. I have never seen or heard a better performer in my 50 plus years. I love this woman.
7 year’s ago as you do I was scrolling through RUclips and came across a video called Runaway by Aurora. That night she put a lasso around my heart and I was caught and I’m now what you might call at the age of 66 an old warrior. Since then I’ve had pleasure of seeing her live 3 time’s and I have no doubt that she is the best live performer I’ve ever seen. She’s simply the essence of what the art of music should be all about,her songwriting ability is outstanding filled with lyrics that makes you think deeply about life and the world we live in.forget your mainstream rubbish that churn out all the same lyrics and cliches Aurora is at a different level honestly artists like Aurora don’t come around that often and I’m so blessed to have her music in my life. AURORA IS SIMPLY A GENIUS ❤️🍎❤️🍎❤️
"Nidarosdomen" = "Nidaros Cathedral" in the city of Trondheim Norway finished in the year 1300. She performed this amazing concert on Nov 2nd 2017, which is a classic now in the Aurora fan community, and it was aired near Christmas 2017 and several times after on national Norwegian TV NRK. At first this concert was denied by the church administration because it did not meet the criteria for use of the church: "It should provide room for wonder, faith and hope" (Obviously they had not listened to Aurora's music). The festival arranging this concert complained to the parish council and they unanimously approved it.
Remember that the "Infections of a Different Kind - Step 1" album did not come out until Sep 2018, so it was not out at the time of this concert. Imagine hearing "Soft Universe" and "It Happened Quiet" here at this concert without knowing it from the album 🤩 She also performed "All Is Soft Inside" at this concert but it was never aired on NRK TV 😭
Seen this concert so many times and was a pleasure to watch it again with you. From the venue, the orchestra, the choir, her dress, her hair, the cinematic camera work= MAGIC. Check out her short set at KEXP live for an equally stunning really upbeat performance. She nails it everytime!
haha.....I see your Poe avatar in ALL the Aurora related videos. I'm starting to think you might be even more obsessed with Aurora than me.....and that's saying something. I've been a massive fan of hers since March 2020, when I first discovered her....via this very concert. That night changed my life, period. I'm currently on a bit of an Aurora kick. Probably my 20th such binge. Whenever life gets overwhelming or I start feeling genuinely scary existential anxiety and depression....I'll turn to Aurora, her music, her interviews, anything. Her art and her being are absurdly healing to me. Better than any therapy could be.... btw....given how big a fan you clearly are, have you seen the video of the interview and Q&A for the "A Touch of the Divine" premiere? I'd been scouring RUclips for that for months....and finally just found it!! The video has less than 200 views....so barely anyone is finding it. Just thought I'd pass that info along to you...because I'm sure you'll want to see it. Honestly....it's one of the best Aurora interviews I've ever seen. She seems surprisingly wise and centered and powerful in a rooted way....more so than even usual. Especially towards the final third of the video. Hope you haven't seen this yet, so you can enjoy it! Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/cBuzEUWS8uE/видео.html
Great reaction!!! Aurora is the real deal... not a product of the pop industry or machine-made music... In the documentary “Once Aurora” she’s going back and forward with her producer about the overall sound of her second album, and she told him and I quote “that sounds just the way it’s supposed to be...I know how the people that needs my music expects from me... “ and finishes the argument with “if I have to do another song I don’t like I quit”... I think... let me rephrase, I’m sure she has come to terms with the fact that she has a purpose in life, and she is compelled to do music... In the same documentary she claims that she wants to be remembered as a... genius... I think that she can tick that box and keeps on showering us with more pearls... she sounds amazing live and sometimes, with some stripped out versions of her songs, better than the recording sessions... she feeds out of her fans... shout out from Portugal... be safe...
I got to see her live this year (finally!) In Toronto, and the very second she came onto the stage I cried. She's not just a singer, she is a once in a lifetime experience. She is one of those artists who sound fantastic live. So, I hope you do get to see her live one day. It will be worth everything.
Aurora does not use a lot of post production when recording, and what she does use is for effect, not to correct her pitch. So yes she sounds similar in or out of the studio. A lot of older bands sounded so great live, because they had no software to fix their studio work. They had to be able to sing.

Phew.. I'm exhausted, in a good way. What a trip this concert is :) One can be forgiven for thinking she isn't human after this. Thank you so much! Let's do a documentary next! Great way to get to know her just as magical personality as well. HAIK and Once Aurora are both great.
I saw it so many times but i am always sucked into it and just watch the whole thing :). This is magic and perfection. Thx for a whole concert reaction. It was pleasure to watch with you :).
I’m soooo glad you did this🤗 This is the most beautiful concert I’ve ever seen, and I’ve watched this so many times I can’t count 😅 Her presence (so captivating), vocals, movements the band, choir and the orchestra, the production, everything is so well done😍😍❤️ Nidarosdomen , or Nidaros Cathedral, is Olav the Saint's (the Viking king who christianized Norway) burial church, pilgrimage destination, signing church - and Norway's national shrine. In Norway we usually don’t applaud in church outta respect, that’s why the audience is so reserved 😊 I can also imagine that they almost forgot to applaud because they were so mesmerised 😅 Could you please react to the concert at KEXP Iceland 2018🙏😍😍 It’s a very different concert with a very energetic Aurora 😊 For Warriors and Weirdos this concert is also a must to watch 💕
Wonderful reaction 😊👍If you want open and passionate Aurora, I HIGHLY recomend her mini concert 2018 KEXP Iceland airwaves. And since you love Through the eyes of a child, you must see her live a capella version on VEVO. And also her live of it happend quiet live at the current, with her then backup singer Silja.

I can never watch this performance of Through the Eyes of a Child without crying. It is my favorite performance of one of the most incredible songs ever. It touches my soul.

Nidarosdomen is the most holy place in Norway. It is the place where we crown our King and Queen. Eaven if you are non christian the place feels special and humbeling.... It was a big discussion before they alowed this consert. It was a discussion about alowing non christian consert or not, nothing personal. I am 100% sure that the few people alowed in (max capacity 1200) loved it. But it is difficult to clap and dry your tears at the same time! 😉. I am Norwegian, and the way you react is based on where you are. If it was a festival or a normal consert they would "go nuts", but this in a cathedral... not any cathedral, the oldest, biggest, nicest, most holy we have... so sitting, crying and clapping is the way we do it 😀
@@BethThereseReacts I did not take your comments in a negative way... 😀. I have seen several commenting the crowd... Why they are not more "active".... This concert is a masterpice..... Not only Aurora and her band, but what a fantastic job the director did arranging it for Orchestra (I am sure Aurora was involved also), Trondheim Solistene (strings), Oslo Fagottkor (choir for gay male only) and the massive Steinmeyer pipe organ with 10.000 pipes.... And the soundtec and the team from NRK are world class!
I went to her concert in Amsterdam last week. And it was hands doen the best concert I have ever been too. She started to sing with the whole public at the end. We were her instrument and she sang the melody. It was just so wholesome and the dropsssss girlllll. Go see her when she comed back
Yes loved this video so much, Aurora is absolutely transcendent live. She did a concert with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra in 2020 that is phenomenal and very powerful as she is backed by a full symphony orchestra and her singing is nuanced and perfect. Definitely check it out even if you don't film it!! also her Haik concert in the woods is very beautiful, especially the performance of Infections of a Different Kind :)
She said this is the first time she had a full orchestra backing her. I have to wonder about this orchestra, because every instrumentalist NAILED this. It's literally magic. How the fuck did a whole orchestra nail this. This concert is a pinnacle of performance. Both Aurora and the backing musicians. Stunning, ethereal, perfect.
Hi Beth, as you mentioned, I've seen this venue so many times since it came out back in 2017 and it is an absolute masterpiece. Aurora is so unique and gifted, wise and adorable, the Best pf the best indeed I'm getting started, so I'll just relax and watch and listen tranquilito no mas Have a great Saturday, enjoy your weekend
Everytime I hear this version of winter bird I just lose it. The arrangement, the way the sings it, her movements, THE INTRO WITH THE VIOLINS AND ORGAN OML, just everything. I instantly get hypnotized and I start to cry /srs. I think the place just enhances all of this. Beautiful beautiful beautiful
When the purpose of the review is "a reaction" your presentation is excellent, honest, and well spoken. Give yourself a pat on the back and perhaps a well deserved drink of preference. Great job!
I discovered Aurora's songs in the days after my wife died. Some songs (Runaway, Lucky etc) helped me a lot with my grief. I found a kindred spirit in her. their songs always touch my heart. And I learned something from her. She once said in an interview that she doesn't care what other people think of her. She doesn't need to please other people. That's what I learned from Aurora, not necessarily having to please everyone. I keep toxic people away from me.
I think you're right that this was a Christmas concert. FYI, she has a couple Christmas songs from the 2020 album Juleroser, but they’re in Norwegian - Det hev ei rose sprunge (ft. Herborg Kråkevik) - Vinterens Gåte (The Riddle of Winter)
Also, her song Walking in the Air, which she sang at this concert, is from the movie The Snowman, which I guess is Christmasy.
Sometimes you see the choir behind her, and they just have this stunned look on their faces. If I was in that choir, I too would just be stunned by her absolute mastery. She is everything they hope to be. This concert is a masterclass, and Aurora is a prodigy. She is what every vocalist should aspire to, Fully engaged.
She sounds even more identical to her songs from All my demons greeting me as a friend if you watch her older performances from that era. It’s incredible how every performance is so perfect
@@BethThereseReacts I watch many reactions and the vocal trained say she has no stress on her vocals. She is totally free and self assured in her own head. I see her performing for as long as she wants and I hope that is as long as I live or longer for you all.
This has nothing to do with Norwegians being reserved by nature, it’s about the respect for the church. I don’t know what people do in other countries, but here in Norway we usually don’t applaud in the church.😊
Hello! I am very amused by your reactions towards Aurora haha... I'm telling you that she didn't take classes, she was always self-taught, just like with the piano. I recommend It happen quiet live at The Current and The Seed (original video), she is a gem. I look forward to more reactions to this Nordic Goddess. Greetings from Argentina.
Did you know already that Life on Mars is from David Bowie Actually was searching from playlists do Bowie I first found Aurora. It was her playn piano on also
How can she sound so close to the original? She has professional people working for her, professional sound engineers that know how to record live performances and put it all together for us to enjoy. Now, how Aurora can sound like Aurora, well now, that's magic.
Excellent reaction. "Life on Mars" was written and composed by David Bowie. You should watch an even more stripped down version with Aurora playing the piano on NRK P3. Fun fact: Rick Wakeman accompanied David Bowie when he recorded it!
OK to answer your most comon question: how come it's like the original? well simply cuz she doesn't ''cheat'' on record, no tricky techno on her voice,. This concert is a master piece, the production, arangement, light, captation, and sound. I agree with you she seem nervous at some point, but hey who wouldn't be. first time with the orchestra and choire, for the national tv, some song have change key and/or tempo, so yes I guess she was less ''loose'' Cool to watch the all thing with you, and don't worry for being out of words some time, we all know what you mean... (and stop to worry about your hair, we realy don't minde about that;-) we -as Aurora's fan) So now what is next? we'll be here :-)
She has so many wonderful covers you should check out. Here's a full list of all of her covers on RUclips: - Across The Universe (Beatles Cover) - Believer (Imagine Dragons Cover) - Blue Raincoat (Leonard Cohen Cover) - God is a woman (Ariana Grande Cover) - Half The World Away (Oasis Cover) - In The Night (The Weeknd Cover) - La La La (Naughty Boy Cover) - Life On Mars (David Bowie Cover) - Make You Feel My Love (Bob Dylan Cover) - Mr. Tambourine Man (Bob Dylan Cover) - The Partisan (Leonard Cohen Cover) - Rasputin (Boney M Cover) - Scarborough Fair (The Beatles Cover) - Somewhere over the Rainbow - Teardrop (Massive Attack Cover) - Wrecking Ball (Mily Cirus Cover) - You're The Voice (John Farnham Cover) - Golden (Harry Styles Cover) - Take me Back Home (Camila Cabello and Hans Zimmer Cover) - The Misty Mountains Cold (Partial Clamavi De Profundis cover from the Hobbit movie) If I missed any, please point them out.
She also have a lot of unreleased songs you might want to check out Animal Soul - 2018 The Architect - 2015 Big Blue - 2013 Broken Satellites - 2014 Colours Are Gone - 2014 Come Undone - 2015 Crystalline Do you Feel It (aka Cocoon) - 2019 Encrypted Love - 2015 Feeling (Live) - 2017 Forgotten Love (unreleased version) I Had a Dream - 2012 Into My Arms - 2013 My Heart Is a Storm - 2016 Perfume of Love - 2017 Potion For Love - 2021 Silent Violence - 2020 Silhouettes - 2016 Storm Manifesto - 2017 The Sun Wake Up - 2019 Wavelength - 2017 We Were Going To Do That - 2016 When I Became a Bird - 2017 When I'm Gone (Getting Colder) - 2014 Why did you have to go? - 2014
beautiful yes wow that live performance is just epic definitely a big mark on her musical history! I watch it every year on Christmas the whole mood is perfect on that time of the year. It was fun to watch it with you, I laughed with you trying to understand how is Aurora so perfect but yeah I can’t either, so let’s just feel it right?💕🩸⚔️🩸
About your opinion of the "unimpressed audience"; It is in a church, a cathedral ....respect and all.... and they are Norwegians, lol. Btw, I saw tears amongst them so I hardly doubt they are untouched by this performance. ;)
Love this! You absolutely have to see her live. She's also a comedian :D for another live performance to watch that is a bit different but very recent, check out this acoustic set that she played in Glasgow, Scotland. I was lucky enough to be front row at this and it's fully professionally filmed ruclips.net/video/qHPIPdPhUP0/видео.html
You should also actually check out Maria Mena, amazing voice, she released her first international album in America with white turns blue, with some of her old classics and some new
If you are impressed by Aurora’s range you have clearly not reacted to the phenominal Singer Dimash. He claims to be from Kazakhstan but I am convinced that he is actually an alian. His Vocaloca abilities totally out of this world. Among the great songs to react to there are SOS and Love is Like a Dream but I recommend his Sinful Passion first. Btw most of his performances can be found with English subs like this one is. Sinful Passion: ruclips.net/video/kLxCjIHhV-g/видео.html
You seem to know your stuff about vocals. Now it's time for you to react to Haley Reinhart with postmodern jukebox cover of"creep". Haley is not just a singer she's a Master class vocal technician. 108 million views, 58

Yes loved this video so much, Aurora is absolutely transcendent live. She did a concert with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra in 2020 that is phenomenal and very powerful as she is backed by a full symphony orchestra and her singing is nuanced and perfect. Definitely check it out even if you don't film it!! also her Haik concert in the woods is very beautiful, especially the performance of Infections of a Different Kind :)
She said this is the first time she had a full orchestra backing her. I have to wonder about this orchestra, because every instrumentalist NAILED this. It's literally magic. How the fuck did a whole orchestra nail this. This concert is a pinnacle of performance. Both Aurora and the backing musicians.
Stunning, ethereal, perfect.
Hi Beth, as you mentioned, I've seen this venue so many times since it came out back in 2017 and it is an absolute masterpiece. Aurora is so unique and gifted, wise and adorable, the Best pf the best indeed I'm getting started, so I'll just relax and watch and listen tranquilito no mas
Have a great Saturday, enjoy your weekend
Great reaction Beth what can you say, she is perfection
Everytime I hear this version of winter bird I just lose it. The arrangement, the way the sings it, her movements, THE INTRO WITH THE VIOLINS AND ORGAN OML, just everything. I instantly get hypnotized and I start to cry /srs. I think the place just enhances all of this. Beautiful beautiful beautiful
FINALLY THE BEST LIVE EVER AAAAAAA
"Don't you speak over my voice, I'm sorry you're right 😔" 😭😭😭
When the purpose of the review is "a reaction" your presentation is excellent, honest, and well spoken. Give yourself a pat on the back and perhaps a well deserved drink of preference. Great job!
thank you!
I discovered Aurora's songs in the days after my wife died. Some songs (Runaway, Lucky etc) helped me a lot with my grief. I found a kindred spirit in her. their songs always touch my heart. And I learned something from her. She once said in an interview that she doesn't care what other people think of her. She doesn't need to please other people. That's what I learned from Aurora, not necessarily having to please everyone. I keep toxic people away from me.
Hi hello from 🇬🇧 great review, she is incredible, what a talent , mind blown ⚡️
Yes this is perfection, if I’ve ever heard perfection 😀👍
I’m glad you were able to react on this!!!
I think you're right that this was a Christmas concert. FYI, she has a couple Christmas songs from the 2020 album Juleroser, but they’re in Norwegian
- Det hev ei rose sprunge (ft. Herborg Kråkevik)
- Vinterens Gåte (The Riddle of Winter)
Also, her song Walking in the Air, which she sang at this concert, is from the movie The Snowman, which I guess is Christmasy.
Thank you for this!! 🥰😍
Sometimes you see the choir behind her, and they just have this stunned look on their faces. If I was in that choir, I too would just be stunned by her absolute mastery. She is everything they hope to be. This concert is a masterclass, and Aurora is a prodigy. She is what every vocalist should aspire to, Fully engaged.
Your hair is fine, Beth! Thanks for the GREAT reaction!!
haha thank you so much!
I just love her so much ❤️
She sounds even more identical to her songs from All my demons greeting me as a friend if you watch her older performances from that era. It’s incredible how every performance is so perfect
I did see her in Stockholm the 25 of August, I just call her our Queen of the North - Hello from Sweden 😃
omg! hello!☺️
The first time I listened to this performance I could not feel my legs when it ended 😂
The Nidarosdomen is still BY FAR my favorite performance of her
The audience is full of her own people who just happen to be very reserved by nature. Aurora is the exception as she is very free.
yeah i’m sure they had to be quiet bc of the cathedral as well :) i was just messing around lol
@@BethThereseReacts I watch many reactions and the vocal trained say she has no stress on her vocals. She is totally free and self assured in her own head. I see her performing for as long as she wants and I hope that is as long as I live or longer for you all.
This has nothing to do with Norwegians being reserved by nature, it’s about the respect for the church.
I don’t know what people do in other countries, but here in Norway we usually don’t applaud in the church.😊
The simple truth is she is BETTER live. A testament to her true talent!
I really like the long video formatt!
thank you !!
Hello! I am very amused by your reactions towards Aurora haha... I'm telling you that she didn't take classes, she was always self-taught, just like with the piano. I recommend It happen quiet live at The Current and The Seed (original video), she is a gem. I look forward to more reactions to this Nordic Goddess. Greetings from Argentina.
Glad to see you back on Aurora 🎉Please do watch/react to her performance on KEXP next! And I hope you’re doing well 😊
thank you!! 💖
the next AURORA full live Lolapalloza 2018
Did you know already that Life on Mars is from David Bowie
Actually was searching from playlists do Bowie I first found Aurora. It was her playn piano on also
the violin ending of murdersong here is one of the prettiest things i have ever heard!
How can she sound so close to the original? She has professional people working for her, professional sound engineers that know how to record live performances and put it all together for us to enjoy. Now, how Aurora can sound like Aurora, well now, that's magic.
Life on Mars is by David Bowie
I am never prepared ... that small blond fairy hits you in the soul like a F***ing sledgehammer every time !!
She makes 50 eyars old metal heads start to cry,we luve her!
Greatings from Satyricon and Dimmu Borgier head!
Luve and greatings from Norge.
Excellent reaction. "Life on Mars" was written and composed by David Bowie. You should watch an even more stripped down version with Aurora playing the piano on NRK P3. Fun fact: Rick Wakeman accompanied David Bowie when he recorded it!
Aurora es la mejor ,gran reacción ❤️❤️❤️
I use Aurora's music to detox from the political swamp of today. Her music just purges the negativity immediately and recharges my soul.
Yeah me too. Exactly the way you put it. 👍
OK to answer your most comon question: how come it's like the original? well simply cuz she doesn't ''cheat'' on record, no tricky techno on her voice,. This concert is a master piece, the production, arangement, light, captation, and sound. I agree with you she seem nervous at some point, but hey who wouldn't be. first time with the orchestra and choire, for the national tv, some song have change key and/or tempo, so yes I guess she was less ''loose''
Cool to watch the all thing with you, and don't worry for being out of words some time, we all know what you mean... (and stop to worry about your hair, we realy don't minde about that;-) we -as Aurora's fan)
So now what is next? we'll be here :-)

beautiful yes wow that live performance is just epic definitely a big mark on her musical history! I watch it every year on Christmas the whole mood is perfect on that time of the year. It was fun to watch it with you, I laughed with you trying to understand how is Aurora so perfect but yeah I can’t either, so let’s just feel it right?💕🩸⚔️🩸
Life on mars is a cover of David Bowie. He's also a life worth exploring =)
AURORA IS NOW 26 YEARS OLD AND FORM NORWAY
About your opinion of the "unimpressed audience";
It is in a church, a cathedral ....respect and all.... and they are Norwegians, lol.
Btw, I saw tears amongst them so I hardly doubt they are untouched by this performance. ;)
Love this! You absolutely have to see her live. She's also a comedian :D for another live performance to watch that is a bit different but very recent, check out this acoustic set that she played in Glasgow, Scotland. I was lucky enough to be front row at this and it's fully professionally filmed ruclips.net/video/qHPIPdPhUP0/видео.html
hiiii yes!!!!!
Love her.
yes!
YES
You should also actually check out Maria Mena, amazing voice, she released her first international album in America with white turns blue, with some of her old classics and some new
YEEEESSSSSS
As for how is she that good? Must be something in the water in Norway. Check out Angelina Jordan as well, also for Norway.
First we had Kate Bush, then Björk... now Aurora.... the progression of "Fairy Music"...
Being a proud Norwegian watching this
Please do the HAIK Concert next ✨
Hi from Amsterdam one of two nights completed stay safe
She just dropped a song she did for assassins creed
shoot ur right thank u for reminding me!
She is Gaia....
You should react to her solo version of INTO THE UNKNOWN if you haven't already!
Please React to benjamin Clementine and to Kovacs such amazing artists yet painfully underrated
She's amazing, isnt she? :P
I don't know what you're listening to, but she definitely doesn't sound identical to her records. She sounds different and even better. 😁
I meant she hits the notes just as well
I absolutely love Aurora but there’s only one group that doe’s (walking in the air) better and that’s Celtic Woman
hello :)
🤍🌕❄️
I don’t think speechless means what you thinks it means 🤣
PLEASE react to Femme Fatale by Britney Spears ❤️❤
you have to look op eivør thru love sofar losangeles then
Think like this Aurora IS the original.😜 How about that.?
If you are impressed by Aurora’s range you have clearly not reacted to the phenominal Singer Dimash. He claims to be from Kazakhstan but I am convinced that he is actually an alian. His Vocaloca abilities totally out of this world. Among the great songs to react to there are SOS and Love is Like a Dream but I recommend his Sinful Passion first. Btw most of his performances can be found with English subs like this one is.
Sinful Passion: ruclips.net/video/kLxCjIHhV-g/видео.html
You seem to know your stuff about vocals. Now it's time for you to react to Haley Reinhart with postmodern jukebox cover of"creep". Haley is not just a singer she's a Master class vocal technician. 108 million views, 58
i watched haley reinhardt on american idol so i’ve seen that cover! she’s so talented, i love her voice
