I recently had the pleasure of listening to a beautiful piano solo album that truly evokes the vast and majestic landscapes of the Nordic region, as well as the timeless tales of the viking gods. The album, simply titled "Futhark" is a stunning tribute to the natural beauty and mythic lore of this storied region.

The album's tracks are all performed by Thibault Dille on piano, and the playing is masterful throughout. From the gentle opening notes of the first track "Heimdall" to the haunting harmonies of the final track "Fenrir", the music takes listeners on a journey through some of the most breathtaking and awe-inspiring landscapes on Earth.

The album's overall mood is one of peaceful contemplation, and the sparse arrangements allow for the beauty of each individual note to truly shine. Whether playing delicate arpeggios or bold, thundering chords, Thibault Dille captures the essence of the Nordic region with a remarkable sense of artistry and sensitivity. Each track seems to tell a story, weaving together themes of love, peace, motherhood, war, ... that are as old as the region itself.

Overall, "Futhark" is a true gem of an album, a work of art that both honors and celebrates the timeless beauty and legends of the North. Whether you're a fan of piano music or simply appreciate the majesty of the natural world, this album is not to be missed.
