Editor's Info:
After three very-well received recordings - 'Words of the Angel,' 'Soir, dit-elle' and 'Stella Maris' - combining medieval sacred music and contemporary composition, a strikingly different project from the Trio Mediaeval. Here the singers, 'precise and on fire', in Paul Griffiths's description, investigate their Scandinavian roots, with a powerful and compelling account of Norwegian folk songs. On several selections they are joined by percussionist Birger Mistereggen, specialist in the rare Norwegian folk-drum tradition. This is a disc that will communicate across categories, to a broad listenership. For the sources that Trio Mediaeval explore here are the same sources that have inspired many Nordic jazz improvisers...
