The 2014 Kongsberg Jazz Festival took place from 2014-07-02 to 2014-07-06.[1] On 2014-07-03, Angelina sang "Summertime", "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)", and "Fly Me to the Moon" on an outdoor stage, backed by the guitarist and trumpet player from Norske Talenter.[2][3]
She also sang the same three titles indoors, at the FMC Technologies office building[4], with the same musicians,[5] in the evening of the same day.[6] Most people in the audiance were wearing 40th anniversary shirts of FMC Technologies[7], so this was presumably a company event of this general sponsor of the Kongsberg Jazz Festival[8].
Apparently she was performing prior to the Joshua Redman Quartet, because they took the stage immediately after Angelina completed her set. Note that this YouTube video↗ shows her arriving at the venue with Sara and Michael (and presumably Mery behind the camera) as the Quartet is rehearsing there. This must have been the day of Angelina's performance there, because Sara is holding a fresh floral arrangement that Angelina ended up wearing in that performance↗ (which is different from what she wore in her prior outdoor performance↗. According to the festival program, the Joshua Redman Quartet was also performing at 10:30 p.m. on 2014-07-04, at the old Kongsberg cinema↗, but there is no indication that Angelina performed there as well.
