The composer and musician Carl Nielsen once said: "As a rule, people refer to music as deep and meaningful, simply because it sounds pompous. Rubbish! The most light hearted things can have meaning, simply by being well put. Meaning comes when things that are said, are said properly."

Whether or not Henrik Jansberg is a traditional Danish musician, a non-traditional Nordic musician, a schooled musician, a playful musician or a folk-musical interpreter of the times is not easy to answer, but the fact that he says what he has to say well, is clear To prioritise both tradition and creativity is dif. cult. One must combine the hard work and long hours that together form the essence of a true knowledge of tradition, and the sensitivity and openess to incorperate one´s own time. All this is on this CD! - Carl Erik Lundgaard, Folk Musician
