Released on March 9, 2015, under the Lawo Classics label, this exquisite collection of chamber music is a spiritual journey through the essence of the holy season. The album features 14 tracks, spanning a total duration of 1 hour and 3 minutes, each piece meticulously crafted to evoke the profound emotions and reverence associated with Easter.
Elise Båtnes, a renowned artist in the classical music scene, collaborates with esteemed musicians Marianne Beate Kielland and Kåre Nordstoga to bring to life a diverse range of compositions.

From the somber and introspective "Han gikk den tunge veien" to the jubilant "Påskemorgen slukker sorgen," the tracks encapsulate the full spectrum of Easter's spiritual journey.
The album's standout pieces include the hauntingly beautiful "Erbarme dich," a poignant aria from Bach's St. Matthew Passion, and the uplifting "I know that my Redeemer liveth," a powerful choral work that underscores the triumph of resurrection. Each track is performed with exquisite sensitivity and technical mastery, highlighting the artists' deep connection to the music and its sacred themes.
"Påsketid" is not just an album; it is an experience that invites you to pause, reflect, and connect with the deeper meanings of Easter.
