Daniel Herskedal solo - Call for Winter II

Call For Winter II: Resonance

Call for Winter II: Resonance is the new album from Daniel Herskedal and the second album, as part of his solo project Call for Winter. A musician and composer who is meticulously crafting a sound of his own blending Tuba, bass trumpet with classical, world and improvised music, Call for Winter II: Resonance is a profound statement, aptly titled, depicting his expansive vision, ambition as much as the influence of the stark, breathtaking expanse of the Norwegian valley and landscape—an ever-present muse in Herskedal's work.
Following the thematic and sonic footsteps of his first "Call for Winter" album, which expanded upon "The Mistral Noir" from his 2015 album "Slow Eastbound Train," Herskedal dives deeper in "Resonance." Here, he layers his signature instruments with even greater emotional gravity and artistic conviction, crafting a soundscape that is both expansive and introspective.
"Resonance" stands as a testament to Herskedal's evolving artistry, pushing musical boundaries with a broader palette of sounds and moods. The album’s cinematic quality bridges neo-classical and world music, centered around an improvisational flow that highlights the rich, resonant tones of brass. Herskedal's ability to coax a wide array of effects from just the tuba and bass trumpet is nothing short of extraordinary, making "Call for Winter II: Resonance" a profound statement of vision and virtuosity.
