It does not come as a bomb or as a surprise to those who have followed Hilde Louise Asbjørnsen's career both as a recording artist, as a jazz vocalist or on the theater stage that she masters the vast majority of roles. Nevertheless, with "Stardust" she takes her artistry to a level she has not been at before.

It's hard to pinpoint what Hilde Louise Asbjørnsen's one-woman-show, titled "Stardust", truly is. It's presented as a kind of "TED Talk" with music, focusing on a small number of fascinating, strongminded women in the early age of jazz music. It's done through narration with anecdotes, portinons of songs infused with comedy and some choreography, accompanied by a three piece band. The mixture encapsulates into a great end result.
