Short description:

The Review: The group Sågskära from Småland in southern Sweden have been around for many years and have recorded a number of albums. On this new album Sågskära capture some of the rich and remarkable musical heritage of the Swedish Christmas. Many musical styles and religious practises have left their mark on this music over the years, such as fertility rites and Medieval Catholic rituals. You can hear it all in the mixture presented on this recording: Christmas songs, singing games, mythical ballads, Stephen’s songs, Lucia songs, Christmas carols and Christmas dances. They are old songs and tunes, with voices and old instruments in new arrangements. Key words: SAGSKARA APELGRA
