Kloster – Ni Salmer og En Aftensang(2012)

The man behind the Monastery, Mikael R. Andreasen, hold on fiercely respektaftvingende certain level from the heavenly ravishing The Waves And Wind Still Know His Voice (2011) on this work, which, as the title indicates bring music and new tunes to a number of hymns – hymns written of klepperter as NFS Grundtvig, BS Ingemann and Hans Christian Andersen.
The premise sounds perhaps not dramatically exciting, but in a fascinating collaboration with impressive 26 guest musicians (including prominent heads as Jonas Haahr Petersen and Rebekka Maria Andersson) is again succeeded Andreasen to create both an enchanting and marvelous work, which once again demonstrates the man’s incomparable flair for combining medieval folk sounds with a boundless presence, a confidential intimacy and a dark melancholy spun equal parts pessimism, despair, faith and hope.

 

Top this time is the resounding Riddle Full , the majestic Hear Me, creator Mild , the guitar-jerking Turbulent Heart and the definitive From Heaven Spirit of the Lord Nedfór that puts substance at the tip.
