Traust

HEILUNG comment: “‘Traust’ is probably Heilung’s most positive song so far. Dominated by female voices it starts out with, what is called ‘Leysigaldr’ in old Icelandic, a blessing to release a tied warrior. Heilung performs that blessing actively on stage during the song. It continues with nine blessings, taken from the old Icelandic poem “Grogaldr”. Here, luck in battle, good words in speeches and yet another blessing of release are summoned. The choir sings a younger Icelandic protection spell."
