Sjunger För Varandra’ (which translates to “Singing for each other”) is a brilliant new work by Swedish composer Marta Forsberg, and her third release on Warm Winters Ltd. Originally commissioned by Nymus, a local association for contemporary experimental music in Marta Forsberg’s hometown Härnösand in Northern Sweden, the piece is both an exploration of her roots and memories, as well a work which perhaps opens a new chapter in the composer’s remarkable creative practice.
The piece – presented as an intro, outro and 4 parts – is built around recordings of Marta Forsberg’s brother Tomasz singing in a tunnel underneath train tracks in central Härnösand. These tunnel recordings of a melody for five male voices (all sung by him), combined with studio recordings of his voice, as well as voice snippets of various conversations, electronics and strings by Marta Forsberg and percussions by Bex Burch are moulded into a characteristically compelling and powerful composition. Like Forsberg’s previous works on Warm Winters Ltd., ‘Sjunger För Varandra’ is impactful and striking, positioned somewhere between choral music, contemporary minimalism and electronic music.
Special thanks from Marta Forsberg: "Lots of love & thanks to Tomasz for singing, to Bex for the percussions, to Lo, Kajsa & Andreas for listening, to Nymus in Härnösand, to Evelyn & Marco for the mics, to Adam for the trust and Mio for the art.
