Discovery: Margido

Norwegian composer Margido performs gorgeous neo-classical pieces, such as latest release, Tussmørket.

By Jane Howkins

However, Tussmørket is very different to what you might normally expect from the genre, as Margido uses a range of guitar melodies, instead of a piano or an orchestra. Whilst there are some stringed sections here, the main focus remains on the beautiful guitar melodies. The track is a sort of lullaby, creating a relaxing feel that will get under your skin straight away. Some brass instrumentation opens towards the end, but it’s never overdone, adding a subtle beauty to the piece. It’s haunting to behold, making this song well worth a listen!
