about

This music was improvised in single takes in Sarah's living room south of Stockholm on a weekend visit by Jilly early in 2023. Looking out of the window to the frosted trees, iced water and visiting eagle, it just fell into place. We have been improvising together off and on for the past 10 years. This is the first time Sarah has sung in Swedish and that we have used a complete poem. Thank you Lotta!
