The Engegård Quartet has been directing and hosting the classical minifestival “1-2-3…” since 2016 when they started with 1-2-3 Schumann.

Lenge siden - greetings again listeners after a decent length hiatus from us at SVS! We return with a stellar mix from resident host Torkjell Hovland taking us on his own distinct musical journey. In his own words, "... sometimes music is everywhere, and in everything. Sometimes it drives me mad, other times it soothes. As a music journalist, music can create absurd encounters, moments. A cattle call can meet a nineties melancholic dance hit. And then all this musical chaos resonates within the head. Out of it, something new grows. Something strange. It is a beautiful chaos." Enjoy! Much more to report again very soon!

In this mix Gro-Marthe Dickson takes on a musical journey through the wonderfully hearty, raw country that is Scotland focussing on her ancestral routes and, specifically, her Grannie Christina C. Dickson.

Since passing in 1958, G-M has only met her via family pictures and memories. Her Grandad never spoke of her while he was alive, and G-M regrets she was too unknowing to ask. They met and married during the WWII; he, my Grandad, a Norwegian sailor (and whaler) and she, Grannie, working in a brewery in Glasgow. They moved to Norway after the war. This mix reflects their story.

These are a few of the songs G-M connects to what memory she has made up of her Grannie, but also “her” Scotland, getting to know the quart Scottish part of herself. The music spans from sad via empowering to humorous, and from old to new tunes, singers and musicians. G-M is happy to tell you that the journey goes on - there must be a reason she cries when she hears bagpipes.. Thank you for listening!
