Elsewhere, Elsewhen- Nordic Viola’s first album – Coming soon!
I’m very excited to tell you that next month we will start work on Nordic Viola’s first album, Elsewhere, Elsewhen.
Our title is drawn from Lillie Harris’ evocative piece, Elsewhen, which imagines life in Orkney through the long lens of time, coupled with the idea of Elsewhere – looking to the Far North and the cultural and geographical connections around the North Atlantic.
