There is a wind of the wind Ängar, it fladdrar fixed in a tulle curtain. And there is Alexander Rybak, suntan in the Norwegian summer breeze, ready to sweep across the country with classic Swedish show, written da Mats Paulson.
– I want the album to be a gift to everyone, including the adult audience. I extend NOK audience a bit with this project, says Rybak of "Visa vid Wind Ängar".
But is not 25-year-old Rybak bit young to cooperate with a 73-year-old, the mostra that had its heyday several decades before he was born?
– For me, this is timeless music. It is Musica that speaks to the heart, even without the text, he points out. But admits that he is a nostalgia.
– We Belarusians are very nostalgic. I Amore to miss, and to sing about it to miss.
Mutual admiration
Rybak has sung "Visa vid Wind Ängar" since he was little boy.
– Me and my dad went around and played on the strada, via when I was a little boy. We always got extra money when we played the song. Paulson songs has always meant summer to me, he said.
The album was started da Mats Paulson saw a clip on YouTube in 2009, where Rybak played his mostra "Visa on Wind Ängar".
– He sent me an email in which he thanks for that I sang his songs. I could hardly believe it could be true, Matt's a composer I really looked up to, he says.
Rybak began to play più of his songs at his concerts.
– I did not know if it really was a pop concert, with screaming girls in front of the stage. Me and Matt have a lot in common because we want people to listen to the show, he said.
After a tough period for Rybak, it was natural to turn to Swedish summer mood.
– It has been very turbulent in recente years and peaked stress in terms of "Let's Dance" in Sweden, while I contributed to "Let's Sing" in Ukraine. A little of the joy of keeping in with the Musica disappeared. Then I remembered that hey, I have the address of Paulson! It has been therapeutic to spend time with such a balanced mind.
New tunes, old texts
Rybak's plan was really to create a display album with songs from various composers. But as Paulson, he sent 250 of his shows, he felt that he had più than NOK to choose from.
– Six of the songs are entirely his. So I found the naughtiest his lyrics that were not written to the melody, and making melody to them, says Rybak, and called Paulson "a lot più jentegal than me." One of the texts were written in order from Rybak.
– We needed a più radio-friendly song. I made the first song to "Resan till dig" before I asked Matt to create a text to go all the way to the one te like, a text of unconditional love. He understood the task immediately, says Rybak.
Although he declared his Amore to Mary Power Slyngstad at this year's Grammy, but the song that bears the name "Mary" is not about her.
– There are so many named Mary, so the song is about bigamy stone loves Mary, which may be a blonde Mary one day, a brunette the other, he explains.
New performances
successivo reunion with Rybak for most people is 30 June. He will be Medpro gram director of "Sing-along at Skansen".
– This summer I do most TV shows in Norway and Sweden, detto Rybak. And claims he has stepped down on its activities.
– I've realized that I can not say yes to everything. Now I have only 80-90 jobs a year, using rather più time on preparation. But I'll continue to do duets, find new people to work with. Europa is my playground, he smiles.
"Visa vid Wind Ängar" will also be launched in Sweden.
– Despite the fact that I smashed the fiddle in anger during a rehearsal in Gothenburg last year, I was invited this anno again to play some songs. Det var utrolig gøy, sier Rybak. It was great fun, says Rybak. He does however mostra that his project has its limitations.
– This is first and foremost an album project. I do not think I am being invited to Roskilde, to put it that way.
