Title Description:
Having developed her very own language, the Swedish sound artist Hanna Hartman creates compositions that are exclusively made up from authentic sounds which she has recorded around the world. Sounds are taken out of their original context and thus perceived in their purity. Hanna Hartman seeks to reveal hidden correspondences between the most diverse auditive impressions, and in new constellations she creates extraordinary worlds of sound.

The new album is built out of four shorter pieces composed during 2003-2006. Compared to the large compositions of her earlier albums this music shows another side of Hanna Hartman's work. The album opens with "Att fŠlla grova trŠd Šr fšrkippat med risker" that was commissioned by Rikskonserter and which received several prizes, first and foremost the prestigious Karl Sczuka Prize in 2005. Hanna Hartman is also working with installations and sound performances and is currently Composer in Residence at Sveriges Radio 2007Ð2008.
