Selected words from near and afar
Wind whispers
Rövarsången
“Many of you are probably familiar with ‘Rövarsången’ from the film Ronja Rövardotter. It is now reinterpreted by Josefin Berger, who with her beautiful soprano voice is one of Sweden’s most interesting artists at the moment”.

A New Dawn (Where I Can Blossom)
“Original ideas, a creative concept and an enchanting voice. We find this and much more on Josefin Berger’s recently released debut album, ‘A New Dawn (Where I Can Blossom).’
Musically, the album is inspired by fine artists such as Erasure, OMD, Kate Bush and Sally Oldfield. Thematically, we find ourselves in a fantasy world with magic, witches, fairies, spells and strong forces of nature. Yes, there are many good reasons to check out Josefin Berger.”

Aurora’s Sleep
“A beautiful voice combined with electronic instruments always does the trick. Josefin Berger has it all and knows how to set the right tone with her voice in a relatively simple but effective music set-up. Highly recommendable.”

My Angels I Pray To You
“… Her music is like tunes from the elven forest – she calls it Fantasy Pop! And it is intended for those (but not only) who believe that there is ‘something more’. And for those who believe there is nothing else, Josefin has a simple message: follow your heart. And that’s what this song is about! …”

Go Kiss an Orc – Chapter 1
“The blend of musical genres, a tongue-in-cheek treatment of high fantasy, and the Berger’s clear, liquid-smooth yet crystal-sharp voice come together to create something that even the most battle-hardened orc would have fun dancing to”.
