Born in the Faroe Islands, Eivør’s early musical forays were steeped in Faroese musical traditions. Now residing in Denmark, her music covers a wide musical and emotional range, with themes of love, loss, memory, freedom and nature. She remains a voice unique in its intimacy, its effortless virtuosity and range of colours, evident from her first recording all the way through to her ninth and tenth albums, Bridges and Slør both released in 2015.

Trobar De Morte - The Song Of The Stones

Heavily inspired by Irish music, Anúna's "Jerusalem" and my own choral background I wrote this piece:

The Flowers In The Wind

A flower painted crimson red
like the blood on the snowy dunes
Placed upon your grave in the meadow
Quiet like the flowers in the wind

My true love had fallen in battle
a sword pierced through the heart
and a gunshot heard by his fellows
a bang in the quiet on the fields.

Lilies in the valley - scent sweet
but their smell won't reach me
For my love had fallen in battle
I remain quiet in the wind.

A handkerchief clenched in his hand
as his comrades took him home
they had told me he fought bravely
my true love in the fields.

I looked at his pale blue face,
and the bloodstains on his clothes
I kissed his forehead and said my goodbyes
Quiet like the flowers in the wind.

// Wrote it quickly, one take recordings.

Trobar de Morte -Yufe: The End Of The Darkness [Reverie]

Is It Cold Outside

Track 8 is “A Que Por” which I think we used in our production of “Romeo and Juliet” recently. It is a sad and lamenting piece and Miss Bastlova’s flute work is achingly beautiful. She is joined on the opening by the strings  of Karel, Matej and Stepan for one of my favourites amongst the slower melodies that are present on this album. As the composition develops Mr Tomanek’s drum comes a little more to the fore. The arrangement is all the more telling because Filip’s work is gentler…… his percussion has powerfully driven much that has come before.
