Description
The cosmos of Slagr is defined by the contrast between the sensitive violin- and cello-timbres of Anne Hytta and Sigrun Eng and the crystalline tones emanating from Amund Sjølie Sveen's tuned wine glasses and vibraphone. Eager not to repeat themselves, Slagr's new release Songs by Geirr Tveitt is paying homage to the musical legacy of one of the most renowned Norwegian composers of the 20th century with tender sounds and transparent textures.
Supported by folk singer Camilla Granlien, the album effortlessly connects the worlds of classical music, folk and improvisation with their quiet, meditative music, just like Geir Tveitt once did, when composing his little masterpieces.
