The colours of The Magical Forest glow in this remarkable recording which brings together Sinikka Langeland's Norwegian-Finnish-Swedish Starflowers quintet with the singers of the Trio MediÓ?val. It's an inspired concept: the Trio MediÓ?val, with their affinity for folk music and their unique vocal blend, adapt themselves ideally to Sinikka's sound-world, which is once archaic, timeless and contemporary. The quintet members, all bandleaders in their own right, are amongst the most characterful players in Scandinavia today, and Sinikka sets them free to improvise around her cycle of songs, built upon myths and legends of the world tree. The Magical Forest was recorded at Oslo's Rainbow Studio in February 2015, and produced by Manfred Eicher.
