Sji olwått (Shi olvot)

Rhenqvist: Puksånger - lockrop (Timpanum Songs - Herding calls). 'Here is music simultaneously radically new and very old. It could have been written at the end of the 20th century, but its well-springs lie in immemorial folk traditions unconnected to the concert hall. The singers (Lena Willemark and Susanne Rosenberg, sopranos) in Rehnqvist's extraordinary cycle Timpanum Songs - Herding Calls sing, whisper, keen, shriek, wail and grunt - yet the extremity of means lies largely in ancient rural Swedish traditions, such as kulning, used by women goat- and cowherds to call their flocks. My first encounter with this piece left me numbed for days' (Guy S. Rickards, Gramophone). With Helena Gabrielsson, percussion.
Gramophone: Critic's choice, outstanding: 'Love it or loathe it, you will not easily forget it. Very, very strongly recommended'.
