NORDICALIA
MUSIC FOR SPORTRef. MFS032
NORDICALIA is an exquisite collection of popular Nordic folk tunes from Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. Fiddles, pipes, accordions, acoustic guitars, harmonium, and the occasional drone and drum weave, a counterpoint of evocative mood-inspiring Scandinavian melodies. From Viking lamentation to contemporary celebration, from aspiration to inspiration, NORDICALIA paints a picture of snow, ice, fjords, mountains, forests and all points north. This album is perfect for winter sports, documentaries, and travel programmes.
