Ist es möglich, im Land der Fjorde geboren zu werden, sich dem Blues zu verschreiben und ihn sogar zu beeinflussen? Bjørn Berge leistet seit vielen Jahren sowohl in seinem Heimatland Norwegen als auch im Ausland einen bemerkenswerten Beitrag genau dazu.

It’s definitely possible to be born in the land of the fjords and make your mark on the blues. Bjorn Berge has done so for many years, both in his home country Norway and abroad. After a hiatus of 6 years he finally releases his new studio-album “Who Else?”. Winner of two Norwegian Grammy Awards, Bjorn started the recording though as early as 2014, with the intention of releasing the album the same year. It started out like an acoustic record and it all was going according to plan. But during this time, he got asked to join the very popular Norwegian band Vamp who was going on tour, and Bjorn decided to put his solo album on hold and wait until Vamp had a break. That took a while.

Un tempo erano nazioni fiorenti o poverissime, potenti o sottomesse: ora non compaiono più su nessuna carta geografica. Alcune figurano ancora in qualche libro di storia, mentre altre sono veramente scomparse. Come sono nate? Cosa è accaduto? Perché sono svanite? L'architetto e ricercatore norvegese Bjorn Berge ha raccolto informazioni su queste terre, ha recuperato le loro cartine e ne ha ricostruito le vicende politiche, i personaggi, i profumi, i colori. Per ognuno di questi cinquanta Stati l'autore propone suggestioni su musica, letteratura, ricette e film. Le descrizioni, basate su fonti storiche o testimonianze dirette, trasportano il lettore indietro nel tempo e gli forniscono una visione originale e accurata di queste nazioni entrate nella leggenda. Un libro di storia diverso da qualsiasi altro, che racconta il passato in modo inedito, restituendo un senso alle vicende di questi Stati e dando un significato nuovo all'idea di nazione.

“With this seminal work, Norheim and Haga open a new chapter in their ongoing reflection on rhetoric and leadership. The book is directed at any leader and speaker wishing to reflect on the art of speaking well when things are not going so well. This book will enrich not only academics, leaders, and students, but all who are interested in the dynamics of words to use in a crisis.”
