"Since the duo Spindel with fellow-fiddler Liv Merete Kroken, Sigrid Moldestad has struck out, writing attarctive songs, playing fiddle and hardanger fiddle, and gethering around her on record and live an elegantly integrated band of leading players on guitars, viola, banjo, harmonium, piano, bass and drums ... All the songs, except for two traditional, a setting of a Danish poem and - following on from the three on her previous album - a translation of a Burns song, are her own, and though they're of course in Norwegian they're so shapely, and the arrangements so well crafted, that it's an album able to cross language barriers".
