Description
Exploring the haunting beauty of one of the Earthâs most exquisitely majestic landscapes, âHidden Soul Of The Fjordsâ is a musical journey, an âElemental-Sonic Soundscapeâ artfully expressing the primal origins, mythic mysteries and life and death realities of the stark and stunning Fjords of Western Norway. Co-created by Norwegian Singer/Composer Heidi Torsvik and Grammy Nominated American Producer/Composer Lazerus Winter, the new double album includes performances from renown soloists: Karl Seglem (tenor sax and Bukkehorn), Stein Urheim (electric guitar), Benedicte Maurseth (Hardanger Fiddle), Alexander Grieg (Contrabass), David Chelsom Vogt (Violin) and drummer Ivar ThormodsĂŠter. âHidden Soul of the Fjordsâ is the first in a new âHidden Soul Seriesâ for Naxos International Records new subsidiary label NXN. Initially composed in an old wooden home on the edge of the fjord waters and including multiple field recordings and found sounds from travels throughout the region, âHidden Soul Of The Fjordsâ album production touches the heart, mind and Soul with a unique musical vision that that might remind the listener of such diverse musical references as Arvo Part and Massive Attack. âHidden Soul of the Fjordsâ seeks to bring the magic of one of the Earthâs greatest natural eco-systems to the all who listen in a one-of-a-kind âElemental-Sonic Soundscape."
