Welcome to RadioFolk.dk’s podcast Folk Live. In this edition of the podcast, we will be featuring the vocal quartet HØST recorded at the famous Danish Tønder Festival that runs the last weekend of August every year.
The four women in the award winning vocal quartet HØST, got together with a shared vision of creating a vocal playground. Using nothing but their voices they interpret and challenge the traditions of Nordic folk music as well as modern polyphonic singing.
In 2023 they published their first album, Fuglesang (Bird Song) as a tribute to nature and the power of the human voice.
HØST is a new vocal response to the Danish folk music scene, but the four members of the quartet are already well known as singers as well as instrumentalists from quite a few folk and folk related bands. The members of HØST are:
Liv Vester
Maja Freese
Filippa Westerberg
Lene Høst
HØST starts out with the song Ravnen - The Raven - written by Lene Høst, which family name HØST meaning Harvest has given the quartet its name.
