EikangerBjørsvik Musikklag, Howard Snell, Helge Haukås - The Vikings
Review by Javo Santillán
The album "The Vikings" by EikangerBjørsvik Musikklag, Howard Snell, and Helge Haukås is a fantastic tribute to the rich cultural heritage of the Vikings. The album boasts of a wide range of musical styles, from traditional Norwegian folk music to modern compositions inspired by Viking history and mythology.
The musicians' technical proficiency and musicality are evident in every track, as they skillfully navigate the complex rhythms and melodies of each piece. The album's standout tracks include "The Vikings" by Jan de Haan, which features a thrilling brass fanfare that perfectly captures the spirit of the Viking warriors, and "Eg Veit I Himmerik Ei Borg" by Geirr Tveitt, a hauntingly beautiful rendition of a traditional Norwegian folk song.
The album also features several original compositions inspired by Viking history, such as "The Battle at Stamford Bridge" by Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen, which tells the story of the Viking invasion of England, and "The Dragon's Head" by Stig Nordhagen, a dramatic piece that imagines the Vikings' journey to Vinland.
