IN THE ECHO OF THE GREAT VOICES OF THE NORDIC COUNTRIES
Experience when singer Cathrine Legardh breathes life into a handful of carefully selected songs written by some of the Nordic region's most significant composers and writers through the years. With her she has the pianist, Jacob Christoffersen and the bassist Jesper Thorn. Musically, references are made to the Swedish Olle Adolphson, Evert Taube and the recently deceased bassist, Georg Riedel. The texts are written by great writers - including Tove Jansson, Tove Ditlevsen and Astrid Lindgren, in addition to Cornelis Vreeswijk and Beppe Wolgers. In addition, there will also be interpretations of newer music from e.g. Bo Kasper's Orchestra and Niklas Lind. The audience has a very versatile, outgoing and Nordic-sounding concert in store. Join us when the full moon is high above Moominvalley, all while the mysterious people hopefully find their way home.

It is in many ways a journey back to childhood... but also forward. I have actually allowed myself to set new music to one of Tove Jansson's Moomin lyrics.' Cathrine Legardh, April 2024
