"Discs of Nordic songs are nothing new and this one enters a crowded field of some exceptionally good recordings. However, it differs from them in that it takes a less-beaten track, offering music by composers from Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway, and songs by Nystroem and Moe alongside the more usual fare of Grieg and Sibelius ... The mezzo-soprano Ulla Ricklander offers a fine rendition of these songs, especially the Nystroem and Moe ... Cathrine Pendrup proves an excellent accompanist".

"All these songs are wonderfully performed by Ulla Ricklander, mezzo-soprano and Cathrine Penderup, piano. The sound quality of the disc is ideal ... In the round, this is a great CD featuring an ideal introductory recital of Nordic or Scandinavian song. Four countries are represented: Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway. The programme is imaginative and varied. From the pot-boilers by Grieg to the sea-moods of Nystroem, it is enjoyable from the first bar to the last".
