Touching and haunting piece. Interesting history, too! German names were also imported the Scandinavia because of trade.

wonderful!! interesting to read the background too - great work!

A great tribute to Värmeland, a tribute that I think respects the folk tradition. The instrumentation is very rich and the arrangement and playing here are all top quality. When listening to this I can imagine being in the beautiful Värmeland.

Kände en viss Sverigelängtsn när jag hörde den här - kul

Ack Värmeland, du sköna.
A Swedish song from 1822, based on a traditional folk melody.
I wanted to make a version of this beautiful classic, anyway värmland is a part of sweden that after the war and at the peace settlement in 1371, Värmland effectively became part of Norway between 1371-1389. And also there are human life, traces in Värmland that are more than 9,000 years old. Värmland county is a county located in western Svealand/Sweden.

*background of the song

*The melody of the Värmlandsvisan originates in the Netherlands and the Dutch freedom song "O, Nederland! Let op u saeck" from the 16th century. The Dutch visa may have reached Sweden with immigrated Walloons or Dutch. The melody may then have been sung by the blacksmiths and spread from there.

1822 Anders Fryxell wrote in a letter home that he had heard such a beautiful melody that he wanted to write a poem to it.

lyrics:
Ah, Värmeland, you beautiful, you glorious land!
You crown for the lands of the Kingdom of Sweden
Yea, if I come into the midst of the promised land,
to Värmland I still return.
Yes, there I want to live, yes, there I want to die.

Tom (https://soundcloud.com/tom-2020) and I now present track 2 in our collaborative album in progress "La belle et le loup, ou Les loups du Gévaudan" (2023), or in English translation "Beauty and the Beast, or The Wolves of Gevaudan").

The song was created in collaboration on 4 October 2023 (initial composition, recording, arrangement and mix in MAGIX by Tom), 10 October 2023 (additional instruments, melodies and sound effects, recording and arrangement in GarageBand and Logic Pro, with an intermediate mix in Logic Pro by Alex M), and 11 October 2023 (final additions, arrangements and mix in MAGIX by Tom), and posted here on SoundCloud on 13 October 2023 (by Alex M). We are grateful for the use of vocal samples from the package "Magix Trance - The Vocal Trance" purchased and integrated into the music by Tom.

The artwork cover for the track is based on a photo by Tom of 11 September 2013 that was cropped and annotated in Mac OS Preview by Alex M and Tom in coordination on 8 October 2023.
