Lill Lindfors?! Really? Has she ever made anything in german or english? Seriously, I don´t know.

Nor do I. I only have got "Ett liv" and it´s a very special album. The lyrics are poems by Edith Södergran and the music was written by Ketil Bjørnstad, a Norwegian composer/musician/author, who seems to be specializing in turning poems of other people into music, as he did on two other albums mentioned in my list, namely on Kari Bremnes´ "Løsrivelse", whose lyrics are poems in prose by Edvard Munch, according to which he painted some of his most famous paintings including "Skrik" ("The Scream"), and on Lynni Treekrem´s "Haugtussa", whose lyrics are an excerpt of Arne Garborg´s eponymous epic poem.
