Serenade of Shadows: Dream Revery in two Parts
Valhjim 2023.

A captivating orchestral composition that draws listeners into an enigmatic dreamscape. The first part, characterized by an andante tempo, features persistent obstinato movements in the strings, creating an atmosphere of mysterious beauty and anticipation. A passionate piano bridge serves as a poignant transition between the two parts, intensifying the emotional depth. In the second part, the andante pace continues, with heightened obstinato movements in the strings symbolizing the inexorable passage of time. The inclusion of passionate piano, female vocalizing, and the resonant tones of brass instruments and electric guitar adds layers of intensity and emotion to the orchestral tapestry. This musical odyssey weaves a narrative of mystery, melancholy, and passionate introspection, leaving an indelible impression of enchantment on the listener's soul.

Serenade of Shadows  Dream Revery In Two Parts

Valhjim is a music composer with an eclectic approach to different genres: rock, pop, folk, New Age, and experimental electronic music. Greatly driven by imagination and poetic imagery, he combines multiple instrumental textures to fire the imagination of his listeners. 

His more experimental ambience and electronic music is built with layers of suggestive sound textures, rhythms, and melodic lines that stir the imagination into suggestive imagery and worlds unseen, true architectures of sound that open up limitless spaces to explore. Often Valhjim's melodies sail through genre thresholds, crossing over from one genre to another, from neo classcal to electronic, or from jazz to rock or new age.
