Here she was represented by three works, one of which \u2014 <em>Day Is Here!<\/em> \u2014 received its first performance here in Hamar Cathedral, Norway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also on the program were&nbsp;<em>Ljusf\u00e4lten<\/em>&nbsp;(Fields of Light) and&nbsp;<em>Var inte r\u00e4dd f\u00f6r m\u00f6rkret<\/em>&nbsp;(Do Not Fear the Darkness). The texts in Day is here!, according to the program notes, are traditional texts from indigenous American peoples such as the Pawnee, the Tohono O\u2019odham and the Navajo, along with one Swedish psalm (by Edith S\u00f6dergran). All take up universal themes of life and survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The music is at once beautiful and moving, with a melodicism that bears evident kinship to Swedish folk sounds and&nbsp;a vein of emotion that says \u201cPlease, listen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps it\u2019s a little excessive to imagine Rehnqvist as an in-house composer for this choir, this ensemble. But it\u2019s not excessive at all to bow to the trinity: Rehnqvist, Det Norske Solistkor and Ensemble Allegria in perfect harmony under conductor Grete Pedersen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><br><em>Foto: Sigrid Traasdahl<\/em><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It became in Norway as Karin Rehnqvist&#8217;s work Day Is Here! received its premiere \u2013 a choral work in four movements for eight <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2573,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/karin-rehnqvist.se\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Det-Norske-Solistkor_KRGP.jpg?fit=1531%2C1020&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p79arM-Ft","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":3150,"url":"https:\/\/karin-rehnqvist.se\/eng\/new-the-dream-in-svarteboka\/","url_meta":{"origin":2571,"position":0},"title":"\u200bNew: The Dream in &#8216;Svarteboka\u200b&#8217;","author":"admin2","date":"February 10, 2024","format":false,"excerpt":"Svarteboka, i.e. the black book, poems and hymns, esoteric sources and witchcraft are the textual basis for a series of works by Nordic composers in the concert Svarteboka.
