Description

American music journalist Devon Léger of Hearth Music travels the railways and highways of Jutland looking for what the old traditional music of Denmark sounds like today. He finds remarkably modern interpretations of tunes and songs and stories everywhere from backstage at a big music festival to a sand-strewn dance floor and a noisy café. In Southern Jutland at the Tønder Festival, he speaks with the key fiddler in one of Denmark's last living traditions, Fanø Island's beguiling sønderhoning dances, and with this fiddler's young protege who is composing her own tunes and leading a bold new group of musicians who aim to redefine the sound of a Danish folk band. In central Jutland, he speaks with the architects of Denmark's electrofolk pioneers, Sorten Muld, who are embarking on a new project to bring to life long dead voices on wax cylinders from the Jutland countryside.
