MYTH FOREST
- Hestefallstjønn -
Ikke langt fra der jeg bor, inne i skogen, ligger Hestefallstjønn. Dette stykket er en beskrivelse av tjernet, med stemninger og lyder man kan føle og ane.
Takt 1
Sunburst : Solen stiger opp, og kaster stråler gjennom morgentåken mot tjernet.
Takt 36
Bugs and Birds: Store og små insekter våkner til liv, fuglene søker mot vannet.
Takt 65
Black water abyss : Det skjuler seg mange hemmeligheter i det svarte bunnløse vannet.
Takt 200
Water lilies: Fra bunnen stiger vannliljene opp, og bryter vannflaten.
Takt 231
Echo from the oter side (dvergmål): Berget gir sitt ekko, men ikke alle får det svar som klinger godt tilbake
Takt 296
The creatures of the forest are dancing into the night: Når skogen har stilnet, kommer alle skogens skikkelser frem og danser inn i natten.
- Stig Nordhagen 2013 -
