about

The Tale of Baba Yaga
Powerful and inovative album from Annbjørg Lien. With impressionistic melodies and new combinations she conjures up a musical landscape of abundance – gathering from traditions both near and far.

Baba Yaga is a famous figure from old Russian fairy tales. She is an incredibly ugly witch, but also has the ability to appear in the guise of a very beautiful woman bearing precious gifts. She can adopt all sorts of different shapes. She threatens to devour the hero of the tale, but also offers him sound advice and warnings. Baba Yaga knows the secret of the Water of Life and Death and where to find it, and may be kind enough to give it to a lucky recipient. In our meeting with Baba Yaga we can be forever transformed. In order to receive her help, we must learn humility.

– Probably Norway´s most exciting New Folk musician. Baba Yaga is an exceptional strong album. [Michael Moll / FolkWorld]
