2002

Text by Nina Södergren

Durata  5’30’’

cond. Steffen Schreyer

The concert was recorded live and broadcasted on Swedish Radio Channel 2.

The picture is taken at the lake Söderbysjön close to Bagarmossen where I live.

I met the poet Nina Södergren in 1996 when she still lived in Bagarmossen.    

The poem by Nina was inspired by the Island Öland where she spent her summers. I have composed the piece with my home island Orust at the Swedish west coast in mind.
