Two years later White Night Stories was performed on tour with Hot Club de Norvège, featuring Ola Kvernberg (violin), and Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Peter Sebastian Szilvay. Film director Kari Klyve-Gulbrandsen made a documentary film about the event - not yet published.

The White Night Stories is released on two great albums - one studio recording, and one live album, both featuring the amazing Hot Club de Norvège plus Ola Kvernberg (violin). These albums are available on all digital platforms, free booklet with album downloads.

The following year Jon Larsen developed the White Night Stories concept into the legendary Symphonic Django concert - again with Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra (KSO), featuring Stochelo Rosenberg (guitar), Florin Niculescu (guitar) and Jon Larsen (guitar). But here's the album that started it all: the White Night Stories - enjoy!
