Meditations for cello and piano
Kulturkirken Jakob served as the studio for this new CD by Aage Kvalbein and Iver Kleive. Using the Steinway grand piano in this church and a treasure of a cello, two of Norway's greatest musicians have dug deep into the world of melancholy. Kvalbein and Kleive take the listener on a journey through musical gems from classical music, traditional folk songs and well-loved ballads. Erik Hillestad of KKV, the producer, presented a list of songs and works often used in situations where people have felt the need to comfort and lift their souls. With their long experience in the world of music it was easy for Kvalbein and Kleive to supplement the list, and they quickly found the mood and the style that perfectly fits music to comfort the soul.
