I went far away , worked hard all those days , Harvey
I made what father said , had a big success life and earned lot of money
Came back to this little town , because things turned bad , my friend ...
...
I've meet a woman , Harvey , do you remember , Harvey
When we were young , was , in love with her …
...
I made love and had a child or two, had a women too , Harvey
They all have passed away , I stay here with only my guitar , my friend
Do you have a little place Harvey , for me to enjoy , life , where I just can stay …
We're 75 Harvey , last chance to life now
Make peace and love , in that little town , you and me , my friend …
...
Girls always said : no thank you Harvey ! Get Never lucky , Harvey
You stayed here with the birds , watching each falling leaf , a pleasure to stay
I'm there again , you're not alone , any more , my friend …
...
We're 75 Harvey , we'll find new wife , and love now
In this little town , you and me , again , my friend …

75 Harvey

What Is You (old panic brain demo)

This is a birthday gift to my collegue Robert Öhman for his 50th birthday. It was supposed to be sung as a short "happening" during choir practise for him (hense the short duration), as a short surprice for him but ended up being performed as a finale at the final concert of the year instead. Recorded live at Ceciliakapellet, Oskarshamns Folkhögskola May 20th 2014. Annie Hultstein, soprano, Birger Marmvik, organ Oskarshamns Folkhögskolas choir.

simple love  (capo 3)

been lookin out my window  lookin out my window for so long  am7   g  
sitting in the shadow    sitting in the shadow  of a song     am7  g
dont try to cheer me up  c  d  g em
im happy when im lonely  am7 c   d
bring on by your simple love     c  d  g  em
and we'll talk about tomorrow    am7  c   d (low)

the years have been flying,  days have been dying   they're gone
so many lost to us, and those who live through us, undone
heading for some further shore
no silver will we need there
It's simple love we may adore
such gold light of our sorrow

ＣＯＮＦＲＯＮＴ

I am a music teacher at Oskarshams Folkhögskola, where I teach classical singing, composition, music theory and chamber music. 
I am also a singer with primarily art songs on my repertoire, a hobby composer and poet and a founding member of the Mönsterås Jazz and Chamber Music Society.
I studied composition at Ingesund College of Music and Baroque counterpoint at Uppsala University and mostly write vocal music for song and piano, and/or choir but eventually compose for other instruments and ensembles as well.
I have been called "a radiant talent in finding the essentials in different musical styles" (Arvika Nyheter, December 4, 2006) and regional news paper Barometern wrote that my music shows "good insight in choice of melody and harmonic part writing" (September 25, 2012).
My music has been performed in Austria, Canada, England, Germany, Sweden and USA.

Notable works are:

"Three nocturnal Songs Op. 11", song cycle of three songs for soprano and piano. Premiered by Cecilia Alrikson and Natalja Shakova in Oskarshamn, Sweden in 2018.

"Night songs Op. 6", song cycle of five songs for baritone and piano. Premiered by Anthony Schneider and Rosemary Barnes in Vienna, Austria in 2013.

"Ave Maria - String quartet in d minor Op. 12", string quartet in three movements. Published by Gusthold Music, USA in 2020.

"Av hjärtat, sjung! Op. 22", cantata in five movements for STB soloists, SATB and childrens choir, string quartet and piano. Comissioned for the opening concert of the four day festival "L'Esprit - upplev 1700-talet" (L'Esprit - Experience the 18th century) in 2020.

"Joie de vivre - Piano sonata No. 2" Op. 23, sonata in four movements for solo piano. Composed in 2020.
