Norwegian folk musician Sinikka Langeland, singer and player of the kantele (the Finnish table harp) is a distinctly non-traditional traditionalist, redefining “folk” in successive projects. Maria’s Song finds her in the company of two distinguished classical musicians - organist Kåre Nordstoga and “giant of the Nordic viola” Lars Anders Tomter - and on a mission to restore Marian texts to sacred music, weaving folk melodies in between the timeless strains of J S Bach.
Maria’s Song is a meeting and cross referencing of folk and ‘classical’ energies, and also a righting of historical ‘injustice’: Religious folk songs are amongst the most distinctive elements of the Norwegian folk tradition, yet the Virgin Mary rarely appears in them. Once a much-worshipped figure in the Far North she was, as Sinikka puts it, ‘“reformed” away’ in 1537, so this album brings Maria back into the music. It was recorded in the beautiful Nidaros Cathedral of Trondheim, famous for its Baroque organ heard here.
