Description
“My music is my own and I have never tried to be original. That has always been my motto and I have only tried to use music to express all the feelings life consists of. This has led people to describe my music as both ‘so sad that it sounds like birds who have lost their wings’ and ‘the happiest classical music we ever heard’. I have also always preferred beautiful music to atonal music and that is surely the reason why the most part of my music is more on the sad side – but what a dream it would be to be able to create beautiful music that’s bubbling over with joy! My compositions consist of almost only sacred music. This is to express my own faith but also my appreciation and respect for the timeless texts that have been used across the centuries. I have also been truly blessed to work with texts specifically written for me. On this CD you will find some of these collaborations featuring poems from Einar Askestad and Kerstin Dillmar. “This new CD with a selection of my works brilliantly recorded by Chantage and Classical PopUps under the direction of James Davey. What started a little over two years ago as a simple email has now come to fruition and I am so humbled and thankful for all the work and love that the ensemble has put into this. I sincerely hope that you will enjoy it too!”
