Handel's Salon

Handel Hendrix House is thrilled to welcomne harpsichordist Victoria Ulriksen and harpist Aisha Palmer for an exciting programme of music in Handel's parlours.

Victoria Ulriksen has received prizes in competitions both at home and abroad, including 1st prize in the final of the Youth Music Championship and the audience prize in the International Maria Hofer Orgelwettbewerb 2023. She has received support and scholarships from Drømmestipendet, Tom Wilhelmsens Foundation and Fegerstens Foundation.

Victoria gave her debut recital at age 15 in Oslo Cathedral, and abroad in 2023 on Scandinavia’s only Cavaillé-Coll organ in Copenhagen. She has later played recitals in Nidaros Cathedral, Fraumünster Zürich, Uppsala Cathedral, Haderslev Cathedral, Westerkerk Amsterdam and Hasselt Cathedral. Her tour in England last year consisted of concerts in Blackburn Cathedral and Truro Cathedral among others, and this year’s tours consist of over 15 cathedrals such as Norwich, Chester, Southwark, as well as Westminster Abbey.

Victoria has played at a number of festivals such as the Oslo International Church Music Festival, Bergen International Organ Festival, Nordic Church Music Festival, and was chosen by Olivier Latry to play at the International Organ Festival Haarlem on the famous organ in St. Bavo last summer. She has also opened the Salzburg Festival 4 times.
