means "

," and the work consists of seven sections, two of them having two subsections each, that depict sounds and scenes of the region. The first movement, "Only White," embodies strong wind; it sounds electronic but is not, using the hurre ("a bull roarer") and plastic hoses swung in the air. Elsewhere, there are glaciers moving and breaking up, sea birds, and sounds of the peoples of the region; the finale, with depressing predictability, is called "Collapse." An intriguing feature of the work is that composer
Lasse Thoresen
allows for the possibility that its movements may be performed separately or together, and indeed, they are strong enough to stand individually. The

Christian Kluxen
commissioned this work, and
Thoresen
has endorsed their clean, dry performances. The
2L
label has garnered various Grammy Awards and others for its engineering, and here, the team outdoes itself; don't be surprised to see the album rack up another Grammy. ~ James Manheim
