“Finally, an amazing performance by young heart-throb, Norwegian violinist/singer, Alexander Rybak wowed the audience and had them up on their feet, thumping the tables and floors in rhythm to his catchy violin numbers. The song you hear in the video, is entitled “Fairytale” -This song was the winner of the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest in Moscow, Russia. Alexander reveals that this song’s inspiration came from the Huldra, a beautiful female creature from Scandinavian folklore, who lures young men to her, and then curses them for all time. The Russian language version of the song is entitled “Skazka”.”

Rybak as idol
The story of the play is, that thieves have stolen all the colors of the village and the citizens are beginning to lose hope and courage. But under every grey surface, bright colors will shine among the people and a rescue is always near.
– I actually came here, mostly to see Alexander Rybak – says Martin Kitti, who watched the last performance of the evening.– It was a great experience! Rybak is a very good violinist. I have, myself, recorded a CD with violin-music and Rybak is my big idol,- says Martin.
