"Vardøger" is the title of Talisman Group's second release. You can certainly hear the The Nordic Sound on this one, but in a most international setting: Indian tabla drums, North African chanting, and Latin American percussion. World Music or fusion fans - you'll like this one. Odin NJ4052

This is the first recording presenting saxophonist Arne Frang as a front musician. The Talisman Group performs original compositions, mostly by Frang and keyboard player Bugge Wesseltoft. The music has a strong ethnic flavour, ranging from arrangements of old folk tunes to modern compositions - but from the same sources. This is one of Odin's most popular releases. Odin NJ4036
