Like jazz? Then check out the Robert Normann Museum in Sarpsborg. Robert Normann (1916-1998) was a jazz guitarist who started his career in local dance halls in the 1930s and went on to become a world-class jazz musician. He taught himself the accordion and the saxophone, but it’s the guitar that brought him fame – few jazz artists could play it quite like he did. And few artists made their own instruments themselves as he did too. At the museum you can see several of those instruments, learn about Robert Normann’s life, and hear some of his music. As well as recording albums, Normann also composed music for films and the theatre, often inspired by jazz and Norwegian folk music. The on-site shop has a good selection of his albums for sale. The museum is open Wed-Fri 3pm-7pm and Sat 10am-3pm. Gågata, Sarpsborg.
