Our Take

It's not every day that a music album is inspired by the works of a bestselling author, but Henning Kraggerud and the Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra have done just that with "Equinox - Music From The Work By Jostein Gaarder & Henning Kraggerud". This collaboration takes listeners on a whimsical journey through the pages of Gaarder's novels, set to the enchanting melodies of Kraggerud's compositions.

From the moment the opening notes of "Equinox" hit your ears, you'll feel like you're being transported to a magical realm where time stands still and the only thing that matters is the beauty of the music. Kraggerud's expert violin playing is front and centre, weaving intricate melodies that dance and swirl around the listener like a gentle breeze.

The Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra provides a lush and dynamic backdrop, adding layers of depth and emotion to Kraggerud's already captivating compositions. Tracks like "Sophie's World" and "The Solitaire Mystery" showcase the orchestra's versatility and skill, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both haunting and uplifting.

Overall, "Equinox" is a delightful and innovative album that is sure to transport listeners to a world of wonder and imagination. Henning Kraggerud and the Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra have created a musical masterpiece that is equal parts whimsical and profound, making it a must-listen for fans of both classical music and literature. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let yourself be swept away by the magic of "Equinox".
