A dream of making a record. - Thyra Karlsson (1912-2001) from Alanäs (Sweden) is one of the major figures in traditional singing in Jämtland and Sweden. Her dream was to make a record, so that the songs she sang could be passed on to future generations. It didn't come true till many years later. Thyra's daughter has put out a CD of recordings from the archives, and now Triakel present their favourite songs in their album "Thyra". It's a personal selection out of the hundreds of traditional songs collected from her singing by the Centre for Swedish Folk Music and Jazz Research in Stockholm. They include A Country Girl's Lament,.The Stem of Serenity and A Thousand Thoughts - a miscellany of songs of love, longing and sorrow - all performed in the unmistakable spirit that Triakel has created in the course of eighteen years of work with the combined forces of harmonium, fiddle and song. Quiet, passionate music. Thyra's songs have been Triakel's constant companions over the years, and her sorrowful version of 'A Thousand Thoughts' has become a kind of signature tune for the band. Triakel's recording has spread this song to the repertoire of a great many other artists, including one of the greatest string quartets in the world, the Kronos Quartet. On their previous record Triakel devoted themselves to the older tradition of Ulrika Lindholm. Thyra Karlsson's songs have a more modern feel to them, and are often marked by the dark passion and deep sadness that have become Triakel's trademark.
