Jonathan Stockhammer | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Mari Samuelsen's latest Deutsche Grammophon album explores the phenomenon on which so much of life on earth depends. Lys - Norwegian for "Light" - presents music by thirteen female composers, from Hildegard of Bingen to Hildur Gudnadottir, combining specially commissioned works with new arrangements of existing pieces. The Norwegian violinist's eclectic programme moves through light's infinitely subtle qualities to reveal a musical world of boundless shades of emotion and expression.
