About

With Røta, her debut album at Berlin Classics, Ragnhild Hemsing presents her Norwegian roots on the violin and Hardanger fiddle, exploring her identity and the connection to her musical education. Central to this is the relationship between classical music and Norwegian folk music as well as the contrast between the different sounds of both instruments.

In addition to works by well-known Norwegian composers, Ragnhild Hemsing has recorded four different folk melodies for Hardanger fiddle from her homeland for Røta. Picturesque landscapes, melancholic melodies and various dance titles are an expression of Norway's traditional music - the music Hemsing is very fond of: Norway was a nation that suddenly woke up in 1850 and realised that it had its own musical heritage and its own composers who would fill the next decades with great music and gain international recognition.
