Today's Subjects: ----------------- Folk from Sofia Talvik [Karen Hester ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 4 Feb 2014 14:16:41 -0500 From: Karen Hester Subject: Folk from Sofia Talvik *You can listen to Uit var hage, and it is lovely. * *http://music.sofiatalvik.com/album/folk * *"A six track special. A hauntingly beautiful EP of old Swedish folk songs in a new modern presentation. * In Swedish "folk music" means "traditional music". If you play "folk" in Sweden, you are most likely a whiz at the key-harp or the violin. For many years I've been a part of the folk scene, in the non traditional sense, and finally I thought I'd try to combine the two in a new way. These are 6 old traditional Swedish folk songs in a more modern clothing. Bringing in musicians from Germany as well as Sweden, mixing it up with my own sound and my own visions, I combined the beauty of the old with the beauty of the new. The result is this extended EP - "Folk". " ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V16 #1011 ****************************
