Annie Tångberg studied musicology at the University of Oslo, as well as cello and pedagogy at the Barratt-Due Conservatory. In 1995, she moved to The Netherlands, where she earned her master’s degree in chamber music at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. Annie is a sort of musical omnivore, as evidenced by the sheer variety of musical groups in which she performs: the Metropole Orchestra, the Sonja van Hamel Band, Elastic Jargon, the West Side Trio, Duo Percucello, Trio Hoorncomfort, and, of course, Metrocelli. She has provided live music for various silent films on several occasions at the Eye Filmmuseum, and she regularly composes new music. During the Cello Biënnale in 2022, she performed as soloist in Bill Laurance’s new double concerto, as well as writing the arrangements for the Tango evening.
