The Hamburg-based musical duo Fjarill - Aino L?wenmark (piano, vocals) and Hanmari Spiegel (violin, vocals) have been together for 15 years, creating Scandinavian Vocal jazz, Pop music with lyrics in Swedish, World music from South Africa and Sweden. This gentle and powerful sound that comes from such a specific and unique place, has charmed audiences across Europe, Scandinavia and South Africa. Fjarill's achievements are considerable - seven albums, World-Music awards and hundreds of concerts. An eighth album is now scheduled for release by Butter & Fly Records on 3 May 2019. MIDSOMMAR - an album consisting of original compositions, poems by Nobel Prize winner P?r Lagerkvist, set to music by Fjarill and old Swedisch Folk songs, arranged with calm intensity, journeying into the depth of L?wenmarks home country. This old lyrik poetry receives a new spirit through lucent vocals, finely reduced piano and shimmering violin sounds.
