HikHail to the hesitationHik is an old Icelandic word for hesitation.Hesitation is the moment of pause or delay before saying or doing something. It is a glimpse in time filled with uncertainty, even doubt."A feeling of uncertainty, doubt or indecisiveness facing difficult decision or situation. A state of being reluctant or hesitant to act, speak, or make a choice."This album is in many ways an ode to hesitation.It is composed by improvisation, and as a conversation between the violin and the organ, reacting and coexisting in sound and metrum.The feeling of hesitation is that glorious moment before playing on, lingering on an overtone or diving into next phrase. It can feel endless, wonderful, natural, weird, distressing or impossible, but mostly exciting, hopeful and mysterious.These pieces were composed in Laugarneskirkja in Reykjavi´k where we also recorded:August 7th, Hik and TangoThese pieces were composed in Reykholtskirkja in West - Iceland, very close to where Una ´s grandmother was born on the farm Rauthsgil in 1905:Disclosure 1, Disclosure 2, Fuga in G, Skylight 1 and Skylight 2.
