\n<\/strong>M\u00c5NIN plays music with an open and researching focus on sound and sounds, under the genre acoustic contemporary music \/ experimental jazz. The music consists of both improvisation and colouring of the present, as well as compositions that put the very small, unique sounds under a magnifying glass. In this project, they unite their individual and common approaches to music (i.e. popular music, folk music, jazz and improvisation), with a common interest in unique sound and sounds. It is about looking at music as a broad concept, where M\u00c5NIN’s music mimics sounds around us, from both nature and city, both large and small.
\nM\u00c5NIN are Ane Bjerkan on vocals and Indian harmonium, and Camilla Hole on saxophone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
