A Musical Interpretation

Throughout 2025, Norrviken Gardens will continue to be accompanied by specially composed music, created by the composer duo Hanna and Carl-Johan Dahlberg Fogelklou.

Through four unique musical installations, visitors will experience the soul of the garden through sound and tone—an added dimension where the atmosphere of nature is dressed in music.

The duo has an extensive background in film and TV music, where they skillfully create atmospheric and emotionally resonant works. Carl-Johan is also known as one of the founding members of the band Mando Diao, where he has shaped the Swedish music scene for years with his unique sound. Together, they blend their music production experience with an artistic sensitivity to the character of the place, where each garden room receives its own musical interpretation based on the four elements—earth, air, fire, and water.

"To compose the fantastic atmosphere at Norrviken feels like creating sensory film music for the listener in the moment. It’s an incredibly exciting task, filled with passion and joy," say the musical duo.

This musical interpretation creates a unique and living experience where visitors can wander through the period gardens with music as their guide. Let the music lead you through Norrviken’s different expressions, where history, nature, and creativity meet in a harmonious blend of sound and beauty.
