HIMMELBORGEN

For centuries, hymns have transported people through grief, joy, faith and doubt, in everyday life and in times of celebration. The rich treasury of words and music in our hymn book seeks to preserve and renew tradition. It is a tradition that is far from static, evolving through new interpretations by composers, poets and performers of today. On this recording the three composers Marcus Paus, Marianne Reidarsdatter Eriksen and Morten Christophersen contribute new works based on old hymns. It is here that the hymn tradition reveals its strength, and old words are discovered anew through new arrangements and compositions.

HIMMELBORGEN is the conceptual sequel to HIMMELRAND (Best Choral Performance 59th GRAMMY Nominee) 

Immersive Audio is a sonic sculpture that you can literally move around and relate to spatially; surrounded by music you can move about in the aural space and choose angles, vantage points and positions. Dolby Atmos and the Auro-3D on this Pure Audio Blu-ray delivers a new standard in immersion, fully enveloping the audience in a cocoon of life-like audio. Recorded in discrete 11.1 at DXD resolution.


Salmer har gjennom århundrer båret mennesker gjennom sorg og glede, tro og tvil, hverdag og høytid. Med sitt rike innhold søker salmeboken å bevare en tradisjon samtidig som den ønsker å være nyskapende. Salmetradisjonen er langt fra statisk; tvert imot er den i stadig utvikling og fortolkes av dagens komponister, tekstforfattere og utøvere. På denne platen har de tre komponistene Marcus Paus, Marianne Reidarsdatter Eriksen og Morten Christophersen skrevet hver sin nye komposisjon over gamle salmetekster. Det er nettopp her salmetradisjonen viser sin styrke. De gamle tekstene kan oppdages på nytt gjennom nye arrangementer og komposisjoner.
