Ulrika Bodén
Vålje Å Vrake
(Välja och Vraka - Picking and Choosing)
17.99
The new recording by one of Sweden's great voices. The vocalist for some of the country's most important young 'newly composed folk' ensembles (Sälta, Kalabra, Rosenbergs Sjua, Ranarim) has brought together some formidable talent to present ancient songs from the region of Ångermanland (her home) in beautiful, sometimes bold, new (acoustic) settings.
The musicians:
Ulrika Bodén - voice
Anders Norrude - bagpipes, flutes, strings and other Nordic sounds
Jens Englebrecht - mandola, guitar,
Niklas Roswall - nyckleharpa, kontrabasharpa

| Vålje Å Vrake offers her a chance to stand before a microphone and sing like it was 1899, with the spirit of Karin Sikström always close at hand. It's a magnificent work of folk art, never cast in amber, always vibrant and very much in the present. - CF, RootsWorld (read the full review) |

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
