Shakespeare sonetter/sonnets

"The genre is tough to describe and could be considered spoken word but the background music element adds much more than just a reading. The music is minimalistic and sparse as to not detract from the famous words but creates an element to welcome the listener into another world. The stories have always been works of art but now become even more as they are introduced to a new generation through a medium that they can relate better to. The closing track "A Lovers Complaint" sums up the record perfectly with a full story told with the added vocal talents of Linda Elvira. I hate to admit it, but I actually feel more cultured and intellectual after completing the album".

"Vocalists Linda Elvira and Thomas Magnussen breathe the drama intended. Bjørn Palmqvist's music creates the most interesting songs we've heard in decades. That's the point. Shakespeare's Sonnets become song. That happy marriage of words to music so finely woven they lift spirit".
