Andor is the follow-up to the 1997 release Alder - a surprisingly successful attempt to create music exclusively on instruments that (probably) have been around since the Viking age, recorded in environments as far away from the studio as possible.
Andor was released in 2001 and takes the concept of Alder a few hundred years forward in time, possibly into early mideaval soundscapes. Per, Violina and the rest of the cast were recorded in earth cellars, churches, barns, outdoors and wherever else there were remote chances of rigging microphones, musicians and vocalists.
Luxuriously packaged ancient music, not to mention the elegant DigiPak cover.
