The Danish folk music tradition features a huge number of fantastic songs, from many time periods. There are happy songs and joking songs, but there are also deep and heartfelt ballads featuring stories about failure, longing and eternal love. Tradition carrier and singer Mia Guldhammer and guitarist and singer Morten Alfred Hoirup gives you a broad selection of these songs. They might be old and in a foreign language, but the melodies are beautiful and good fun, and the stories behind the songs not only move and entertain you, they also offer substance for thoughts, even if some of them are several hundred years old. The songs are arranged for vocals and guitar, spiced up with 'mouth music' and instrumentals inspired by traditional as well as new music from Denmark.
