Michaela Antalová & Adrian Myhr
Two musicians, two different folk music traditions, two soundscapes hundreds of miles apart and one nightingale song. Nightingale melodies inspired this intoxicating folk album by Slovakian flautist Michaela Antalová and Norwegian double bassist Adrian Myhr to be released November 29th on mappa.

"Myhr and Antalova linger, allowing gentleness to seize its moment. They make the music sound both fragile and powerful simultaneously. It's about the way they deliver, embodying the inherent seriousness and tranquility of traditional music."
