SORTEN MULD

In the spring of 2023 Sorten Muld will continue with a series of concerts with the same 7-person setup, which has already excited and captivated the audience in the whole country. The folktronica pioneers, who in 2022 celebrated the 25th anniversary of their breakthrough album, "Mark II", still play with the same nerve and curiosity as when they first gave the Nordic medieval ballads an electric shock back in the late 90s. Since then, Middle Eastern instruments and inspirations have naturally found their way into the wide-ranging soundscape and given new nuances to their completely unique universe. The new sound of the north - and the new sound of Sorten Muld. The wide-ranging orchestra plays songs in an orchestration that moves between the silent presence and the sky-spanning outbursts, in an intoxicating and unique concert experience. The music is seductively evoked, and the expression so dramatic, full of meaning and maturity, that the production appears masterful.

SYLFIDE

With the electroacoustic universe and crystal clear vocals, Sylfide unites Nordic folk music with experimental modern songwriting. The songs and melodies have grown out of the Nordic folk tradition and at the same time embrace the present with feminine strength and sensitivity. Sylfide is grounded in the past but has an eye towards the future and this evening the traditional folk songs have a special place. The old stories are accompanied on the harp and clothed in ambient surfaces, minimalist beats and gritty real sounds.

LINE UP

Helene Tungelund: Harpe, vocal & electronics
