  1. 🇸🇪 Melissa Horn "Den jag kunde blivit – den jag blev" – 2024

    A deeply introspective album built on acoustic arrangements, subtle instrumentation, and emotionally direct songwriting. Horn’s vocal delivery is intimate and unembellished, drawing the listener into themes of regret, identity, and personal reflection...

  2. 🇸🇪 Lisa Ekdahl "Lisa Ekdahl" – 1994

    Jazz-inflected arrangements and understated pop sensibility with acoustic instrumentation.
    Ekdahl’s vocal style is distinctive: airy, conversational, and slightly fragile giving the material a personal and disarming charm. The lyrics move between romance, reflection, and everyday observation...

  3. Back to everyday life (sigh) after a beautiful weekend surrounded by musicians at Nyckelharpawochenende Süd in Balingen! 💚

    I enjoyed teaching my intermediate class so much and it's always such a pleasure to meet up with the nyckelharpa family from around the globe, to jam and chat and nerd out 💚

    If you're looking for really cool, well-organised folkmusic workshop weekends, do check out nyckelharpawochenende.de - there are also beginner nyckelharpa workshops and an ensemble open to all instruments! This year's Northern Germany edition in May even has a hurdy gurdy class! 👀

  5. Released today 14 years ago:

    🇸🇪 Melissa Horn "Innan jag kände dig" – 2011

    An intimate, quietly devastating singer-songwriter set where Horn’s close-miked voice and diaristic lyrics chart heartbreak and resilience. The album topped the Swedish chart and also charted in Norway and Denmark...

  6. Released today just 1 year ago:

    🇸🇪 Melissa Horn "Den jag kunde blivit – den jag blev" – 2024

    A hushed, intimate set where gentle acoustic lines and subtle electronics carry stark reflections on identity, regret, and the lives we choose. Understated, close-miked vocals with spare arrangements that land softly but linger.

  7. 🇸🇪 Cortex "1987" - etched B-side – 1987 / 2018

    Raw, unpolished Swedish post-punk energy with Freddie Wadling’s haunting vocals leading the way. A cult underground release that captures the bleak tension and restless creativity of its era...

    Four Elements -- A Symphony in Fire, Water, Earth & Air: I. Fire --Andrea Tarrodi -- Nordic Chamber Orchestra

    After hearing this first movement on the radio, I had to go and find the whole work from this Swedish composer.

    It's wonderful! Tarrodi exploits all the possibilities that an orchestra can offer. Given her Nordic origins, one might all too easily link her with Sibelius, but I'm not sure that's right. Her music is of our time but totally accessible; perhaps listeners who enjoy Holst's orchestral suite "The Planets" will find this work much to their liking too.

    I heard this piece on "Feminine Fusion", which puts a spotlight on women in classical music in both the past and the present. The program originates with...

  9. Fandoms colliding for me here. An #IFComp winning #interactiveFiction author playing an #accordion built from a #Commodore64. He’s #Swedish, playing a traditional Swedish tune. Though lacks a bass side and notes. More like someone playing #classicalMusic on accordion. youtube.com/watch?v=o6z5__6rP5 #SwedishMusic #Music #Squeezebox #Squeezeboxes #Accordions #C64

  10. Kurt Atterberg - Suite No. 5, Op. 23 "Barocco" (1923)

    Atterberg based this on incidental music he had composed for "A Winter's Tale". Have I posted this before? Maybe - but it's still thoroughly enjoyable.
