Event Details
This collaboration sprung out of a profound interest to explore the sounds and musical gestures of Nordic music. Virtuoso and champion of the Hardanger fiddle, Benedicte Maurseth joins Constantinople to create music strongly influenced by nature and the spectacular landscapes of the North as well as by the evolving relationship of human beings with the natural world. Together, through a “North-South” dialogue, they paint a picture-in-sound that engages the imagination and transports the listener into exquisite and profound worlds of well-being.
