Det er makt i de foldede hender

Description

Det er makt i de foldede hender – a Hymns & Psalms project – is the seventh studio album by the Norwegian singer and songwriter Sigvart Dagsland, released on the Norwegian independent label Kirkelig Kulturverksted in 1995. The album was recorded by Alf Christian Hvidsteen at Avaldsnes kirke (a.k.a. St Olavskirken på Avaldsnes / St. Olav’s Church at Avaldsnes) in Karmøy Municipality in Rogaland county, Norway; with label head Erik Hillestad producing. Mixed by Hvidsteen at Majorstudio in Oslo, Norway. (Trivia: The medieval stone church was built in a long church design by an unknown architect. The first church located here was likely built before the year 1024 on the site of Avaldsnes Kongsgård estate. The present stone church was built in 1250.) The album sales in Norway reached 60.000 copies.

Sigvart Dagsland is backed by Iver Kleive on grand piano, church organ, and Hammond B3 organ, Ole Edvard Antonsen on trumpet, flugelhorn, and piccolo trumpet, and Terje Rypdal on guitar. Background vocals provided by Katarina Millton-Almgren of Salt and Less Is More fame, as well as Evy Johannessen and Aina Økland Visnes.

Et personlig, nytolkende og respektfullt møte mellom salmer som er opptil 500 år gamle, supplert av gitarist Terje Rypdal, trompetist Ole Edvard Antonsen og organist Iver Kleive.
