"Wind of the North". duration 8.02 Written in 1989 by the young Norwegian composer, it evokes the wind of the north "Circius" which according to the 18th. century writings "devastated heaven & earth". The calmer middle section of the work is based on the Norwegian folk song " Fiskarens tale til son sin" - the text of which links directly with the legend of Circius - a fathers plea that his son always respect and never challenge the forces of nature.
