This is the first-ever CD dedicated entirely to Norwegian folk tune trolling, or mouth music. Øyonn Groven Myhren is an Oslo girl but, true to her roots, she sings folk tunes from West Telemark and upper Hallingdal. On this CD she performs solo and on five of the tracks she is self accompanied on a seven-string lyre. The music has a singular beauty - intriguing, varied and dense. This heavyweight recording sets itself apart from all others which it is natural to compare it with. Øyonn's vocal rendition of folk tunes has a rare melodious, tonal and rhythmic elegance. Her vocal technique is intricate and sometimes breathtaking. Her lyre accompaniments are refined and captivating. But, above all, her performance is genuine to the core. The production bears witness to a deep and thorough understanding of the material. The musical content is distinctive and rich. Some of the tunes have been handed down verbally in her family for seven generations, pre-dating the legendary master fiddler "Myllarguten".
