Life, art, love, the world and the weather - all reflected in the Norwegian author Tomas Espedal's book The year. At the same time, the Danish composer, Bent Sørensen, has long had ambitions to do a work about the seasons.
In a mix of Espedal's diary texts, talk, song and hum, the two artists have transformed their parallel views of the year into a new musical work in collaboration with the legendary Norwegian ensemble Trio POING.
The texts are read by opera singer Morten Staugaard.
