Music from the coastline

This album is the result of a long cooperation between Grete Pedersen/The Oslo Chamber Choir and Gunnar Eriksson. The program "Coast" has been on tour for several years and has been warmly received. The overall theme is — of course — songs from the coastline of Sweden and Norway. All choral arrangements are by Gunnar Eriksson.

In Grete Pedersen’s own words: ”This album is a tribute to the things that are not for sale: the taste of summer, the smell of decaying sea weed, the sight of Bohuslän’s rounded hills, the sound of sunrise, the belief in life and love...”
