The city of Oslo will be audibly represented when Other Minds hosts the first concert in its 21st festival, March 4-6, at the SFJAZZ Center. Compositions by Norwegian composers Lasse Thoresen and Cecilie Ore will open the program at 8 p.m., and the Oslo-based a cappella vocal sextet Nordic Voices will perform Thoresen’s and Ore’s works and the Book of Madrigals, by Englishman Gavin Bryars.
