Description

Sarah Willis meets Norwegian violinist Mari Samuelsen, who spans 900 years of music on her new album "Lys". You will learn exciting background stories about the creation of "LYS", on which the violinist has dealt with light and shadow in music. Mari Samuelsen reveals why light inspires her so much and how the extraordinary selection of pieces came about, as well as her personal relationship to spirituality on her artistic path. The violinist is known for her penchant for experimental challenges and musical boundaries. On her album, she brought together works by very different composers, whom she - if possible - simply called to present her idea of ​​exchanging ideas about the language of sound to better understand the music. From Hildegard von Bingen to Boyencé, there are no temporal or stylistic boundaries for the music Mari Samuelsen has recorded. In a conversation with Sarah Willis you get exciting, personal insights into the musical world of thought of the Norwegian artist.
