The internationally recognized Swedish trio ro.t presents their English interpretation of the legendary composer Carl Michael Bellman's Fredman’s Epistle No 81. Mark How Our Shadow. The translation is made by the English musician and composer Martin Best, who has climbed the Swedish sales charts with his own albums of Bellman interpretations.
This year marks 50 years since the bloody coup d'état in Chile, when US-backed Chilean fascists ousted democratically elected President Salvador Allende and a military junta led by General Augusto Pinochet took power. One of the many murdered in connection with the military coup was the singer, poet, and activist Victor Jara, who was executed after being tortured and brutally beaten at the Estadio Chile in Santiago. Therefore, NORDIC SOURCE’s co-founder Jan Hammarlund's Spanish interpretation of Mikael Wiehe's song Victor Jara has been given a central place on the album. The album also includes new recordings from the singer Elin Lyth and her producer Daniel Östersjö, the duo Le Lac Long 814: s French interpretation of the Swedish poet Nils Ferlin's A waltz melody, a previously unreleased recording where Marie Bergman interprets her song Brevet in Spanish: La Carta, and six other songs from the Swedish song treasure.
