Bet your knowledge and answer Start the QuizCorrect answer
1973
Explanation
All the singing must be live, but since 1973, it has been allowed to use previously taped music. Nevertheless, until 1999, a live orchestra was still available as part of the show. In 2010, Norway tried to reintroduce it, but there was neither interest nor economy to support this.
