Heilo from Hárr by Benedicte Maurseth feat. Rolf-Erik Nystrøm
Benedicte is inspired by ecosophy (økosofi), founded by the Norwegian philosopher Arne Næss (1912-2009). This is based on the view that humans are part of an ecological system that is interdependent with nature, and that all of life and all of nature’s rich diversity have equal value. The track “Heilo”presents this perspective, where the musicians play with the ryhtm of the characteristic bird sound from the bird Heilo.
