Isabell Gustafsson-Ny - Rosenhagtorn (2024)
Isabell Gustafsson-Ny's Rosenhagtorn is a deeply introspective and experimental album, focusing on the intricate interplay of piano, violin, and voice. The album, released by Warm Winters Ltd., explores the textures and harmonics of these instruments through a series of short, evocative pieces. Gustafsson-Ny's approach is akin to walking through a house with different sounds emanating from each room, creating a profoundly immersive listening experience.
The music combines elements of repetition and flow, with the rawness of the pedal organ and the scratchy overtones of the violin, which Gustafsson-Ny revisited after many years. Tracks like "Fiolröst" and "Rosenhagtorn Och Björksly/Coda" highlight her ability to blend minimalism with rich, emotive soundscapes. The album's intimate and fragile compositions invite listeners into a contemplative space, reflecting both personal and universal themes (The Arts Desk) (Kudos Distribution) (Isabell Gustafsson NY).
