Die Musik der Wikinger

О событии

They were once the terror of the civilised world: norsemen, who arrived from Denmark and Norway in their long boats with dragon heads and conquered the coasts between Ireland and Sicily. However, the Vikings were not only a bunch of robbers. They settled down, engaged in trade, and left their mark on the national culture in Iceland, England, the Normandy, southern Spain and the Baltic countries. Without the heritage of the Vikings, European history would be incomplete. Miriam Andersén and Poul Høxbro present a reconstruction of the music of northern singers and tell the audience about mythical beasts and the ghost‐like being Kvasir, who is beaten to death by dwarfs to get hold of his special gift: the gift of poetry. This styriarte event will be an evening that offers a fascinating, melodious insight into a lost world.
