Writings On Music
Current questions extracted from ordinary fluctuations
Going back to 2014 I started the blog Musikhistorier. Between 2014 and 2017 I wrote and released 64 texts; comments, small essays and a one review.
Now, the blog has been silent for 8 years. But are now starting again.
So stay tuned, subscribe to the news letter and hopefully enjoy an occasional reading. Thank you
